Urinary excretion of sulfur metabolites and risk of cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality in the general population

Urinary excretion of sulfur metabolites and risk of cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality in the general population
Urinary excretion of sulfur metabolites and risk of cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality in the general population

Thiosulfate and sulfate are natural dietary constituents, as well as oxidative metabolites of hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a gaseous signaling molecule with cardiovascular protective properties. Urinary thiosulfate and sulfate excretion are associated with favorable disease outcome in high-risk patients. In our large, general population based cohort neither thiosulfate, nor sulfate excretion is associated with risk of cardiovascular events. However, sulfate, but not thiosulfate, excretion, is inversely associated with risk of all-cause mortality. This strong association leads to the hypothesis that urinary sulfate excretion is a clinically relevant biomarker of physiological disturbance and may even serve as a target for nutritional intervention to promote healthy aging.

Abstract

Thiosulfate and sulfate are natural dietary constituents, as well as oxidative metabolites of hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a gaseous signaling molecule with cardiovascular protective properties. Urinary thiosulfate and sulfate excretion are associated with favorable disease outcome in high-risk patients. In our large, general population based cohort neither thiosulfate, nor sulfate excretion is associated with risk of cardiovascular events. However, sulfate, but not thiosulfate, excretion, is inversely associated with risk of all-cause mortality. This strong association leads to the hypothesis that urinary sulfate excretion is a clinically relevant biomarker of physiological disturbance and may even serve as a target for nutritional intervention to promote healthy aging.
