What is Cystathionine β-Synthase as a Carbon Monoxide–sensitive Regulator of Bile Excretion about?

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a stress-inducible gas generated by heme oxygenase (HO) eliciting adaptive responses against toxicants; however, mechanisms for its reception remain unknown. Serendipitous observation in metabolome analysis in CO-overproducing livers suggested roles of cystathionine ␤-synthase (CBS) that rate-limits transsulfuration pathway and H 2 S generation, for the gas-responsive receptor. Studies using recombinant CBS indicated that CO binds to the prosthetic heme, stabilizing 6-coordinated CO-Fe(II)-histidine complex to block the activity, whereas nitric oxide (NO) forms 5-coordinated structure without inhibiting it. The CO-overproducing livers down-regulated H 2 S to stimulate HCO 3 ؊ -dependent choleresis: these responses were attenuated by blocking HO or by donating H 2 S. Livers of heterozygous CBS knockout mice neither down-regulated H 2 S nor exhibited the choleresis while overproducing CO. In the mouse model of estradiol-induced cholestasis, CO overproduction by inducing HO-1 significantly improved the bile output through stimulating HCO 3 ؊ excretion; such a choleretic response did not occur in the knockout mice. Conclusion: Results collected from metabolome a
