Recently however H2S has been recognized as a signaling molecule of the cardiovascular inflammatory and nervous systems and therefore alongside nitric oxide and carbon monoxide is referred to as the third endogenous gaseous transmitter. Inhalation of gaseous H2S as well as administration of inhibitors of its endogenous production and compounds that donate H2S have been studied in various models of shock. Based on the concept that multiorgan failure secondary to shock inflammation and sepsis may represent an adaptive hypometabolic reponse to preserve ATP homoeostasis particular interest has focused on the induction of a hibernation-like suspended animation with H2S. It must be underscored that currently only a limited number of data are available from clinically relevant large
