Abnormalities in the physiological functions of AT play an important role in the process of diabetes mellitus.Therefore, this review provides an overview of the general aspects of H2S biochemistry, the effect of H2S on AT function and diabetes mellitus and its molecular signalling mechanisms as well as the potential application of H2S in pharmacotherapy.Keywords: hydrogen sulfide, adipose tissue, diabetes mellitus, drug therapy.
