As a signaling molecule, H_2S plays an important role in physiology and shows great potential in pharmaceutical applications. Along this line, there is a need for the development of H_2S prodrugs for various reasons. In this review, we summarize different H_2S prodrugs, their chemical properties, and some of their potential therapeutic applications.展开更多
