Endogenous generation of H2S in the skin occurs through both enzymatic and non-enzymatic pathways. The main enzymes involved in its endogenous production are cystathionine-\u03b3-lyase (CSE), cystathionine-\u03b2-synthase (CBS), 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3-MST) and cysteine aminotransferase. 3-MST and CSE are crucial for maintaining the epidermal barrier. H2S may play a role in oncogenesis, acting as a gas signaling molecule that disrupts mitochondrial respiration and influences immune modulation, cell proliferation, apoptosis, tumor cell survival, and metastasis. Interestingly, H2S exhibits dual effects in the biology of skin cancer, promoting tumor growth in some contexts and exerting antitumor activities in others. Data from the European Cancer Information System and Global Cancer Observatory show a significant global increase in skin cancer cases. The most common types of cutaneous malignancies, from both epidemiological and clinical perspectives, are basal cell carcinoma. squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma. This review aims to evaluate the dysfunctional metabolism of H2S and the specific profiles of the enzymes that synthesize H2S in skin cancer. By comparing the roles of H2S in normal cells with those in cancer cells, we can enhance current understanding of its implications in skin cancer biology. This research paves the way for new clinical strategies, including the development of H2S-modulatory therapies tailored to the dynamics of tumor progression, which could help overcome therapeutic resistance.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms262311413","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,26]],"date-time":"2025-11-26T10:04:57Z","timestamp":1764151497000},"page":"11413","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Hydrogen Sulfide Metabolism in the Skin: From Physiology to Malignancy"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"26","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4983-7648","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mircea","family":"Tampa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology, \u2018Carol Davila\u2019 University of Medicine and Pharmacy, 020021 Bucharest, Romania"},{"name":"Department of Dermatology, \u2018Victor Babes\u2019 Clinical Hospital for Infectious Diseases, 030303 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ilinca","family":"Nicolae","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology, \u2018Victor Babes\u2019 Clinical Hospital for Infectious Diseases, 030303 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Madalina Irina","family":"Mitran","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Microbiology, \u2018Carol Davila\u2019 University of Medicine and Pharmacy, 020021 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cristina Iulia","family":"Mitran","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Microbiology, \u2018Carol Davila\u2019 University of Medicine and Pharmacy, 020021 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Clara","family":"Matei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology, \u2018Carol Davila\u2019 University of Medicine and Pharmacy, 020021 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Simona Roxana","family":"Georgescu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology, \u2018Carol Davila\u2019 University of Medicine and Pharmacy, 020021 Bucharest, Romania"},{"name":"Department of Dermatology, \u2018Victor Babes\u2019 Clinical Hospital for Infectious Diseases, 030303 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cristina","family":"Capusa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nephrology, \u2018Carol Davila\u2019 University of Medicine and Pharmacy, 020021 Bucharest, Romania"},{"name":"Department of Nephrology, \u2018Carol Davila\u2019 Nephrology Hospital, 010731 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Corina Daniela","family":"Ene","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nephrology, \u2018Carol Davila\u2019 University of Medicine and Pharmacy, 020021 Bucharest, Romania"},{"name":"Department of Nephrology, \u2018Carol Davila\u2019 Nephrology Hospital, 010731 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Mallardo, D., Basile, D., and Vitale, M.G.
