Cysteine trisulfide oxidizes protein thiols and induces electrophilic stress in human cells

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

S to generate cysteine persulfide, which protected human cell lines from ER-stress. However this method of producing cysteine persulfide contains excess sulfide, which interferes with the direct analysis of persulfide donation. We conclude that cysteine trisulfide is a thiol oxidant that induces cellular stress and decreased proliferation.
