H2S regulates glucose uptake, adipogenesis and lipolysis in adipocytes.

Action Cells/Model H2S gas/donor application (concentration) Effects Refs.
Glucose uptake
 3T3-L1 adipocytes H2S gas (10, 25 and 50 μM) Promoted [45]
 3T3-L1 adipocytes Na2S (10 and 100 μM) Promoted [44]
 3T3-L1 adipocytes NaHS (25, 50 and 100 μM) Promoted [45]
 3T3-L1 adipocytes NaHS (100 μM) Promoted [43]
 3T3-L1 adipocytes NaHS (100, 500 and 1000 μM) Inhibited [48]



Adipogenesis
 3T3-L1 adipocytes H2S gas (100 μM) Promoted [43]
 3T3-L1 adipocytes NaHS (30 μM) Promoted [50]
 3T3-L1 adipocytes NaHS (50 μM) Promoted [49]
 3T3-L1 adipocytes GYY4137 (50 μM) Promoted [49]
 3T3-L1 adipocytes GYY4137 (100 μM) Promoted [43]



Lipolysis
 3T3-L1 adipocytes NaHS (50 μM) Inhibited [49]
 3T3-L1 adipocytes GYY4137 (50 μM) Inhibited [49]
 Primary rat adipocytes GYY4137 (1000 μM) Inhibited [57]



Adipokines or inflammatory factors secretion
 3T3-L1 adipocytes NaHS (50 μM) Attenuated high glucose-induced decrease in adiponectin and the increase in MCP-1 section [58]
 High fat diet-induced diabetic mice SG-1002 (20 mg/kg/day) Increased the plasma adiponectin level [59]
