The Rieske iron-sulfur protein is a primary target of molecular hydrogen

MHID-8939519PMID: 413302172025Redox Biology

The mechanisms underlying the biomedical effects of molecular hydrogen (H2) remain poorly understood and are often attributed to its selective reduction of hydroxyl radicals, based on the long-held notion that H2 is biologically inert. We demonstrate that H2 is biologically active, specifically targeting the Rieske iron-sulfur protein (RISP). We first observed that H2 induces the mitochondrial unf

High concentration hydrogen attenuates sepsis-induced acute kidney injury by promoting mitochondrial biogenesis and fusion

MHID-3793036PMID: 394330132024International Immunopharmacology

Sepsis is a major cause of mortality among critical patients. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is the common complication in patients with sepsis, characterized by rapid deterioration of renal function. The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of inhaling high concentration hydrogen on septic mice with AKI and to examine the involvement of mitochondria in this process. High concentration hydroge

Molecular hydrogen (H2) has been considered a preventive and therapeutic medical gas in numerous diseases. The study aimed to investigate the potential role of molecular hydrogen as a component of anesthesia in surgical treatment with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) of acquired valve defects on the functional state of red blood cells (RBC) and functional indicators of cardiac activity. This clinical

Anti-Oxidative and Anti-Diabetic Effects of Electrolyzed Weakly Alkaline Reduced Water on Renal Proximal Tubular Epithelial Cells

MHID-02613512022Processes

Subham Sharma, Kyu-Jae Lee, Johny Bajgai, Thuy Thi Trinh, Jayson M. Antonio, Md. Habibur Rahman, et al.

Diabetes, a chronic metabolic disorder, affects glucose consumption in the body and leads to severe kidney damage, known as diabetic nephropathy, where oxidative stress (OS) plays a vital role in disease pathogenesis. Electrolyzed weakly alkaline reduced water (EWARW) is known to have anti-oxidative functions in vitro due to its bioactive properties. However, there is an increasing need for adequa

Molecular hydrogen protects against oxidative stress-induced SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cell death through the process of mitohormesis

MHID-7973359PMID: 284674972017PLOS ONE

Inhalation of molecular hydrogen (H2) gas ameliorates oxidative stress-induced acute injuries in the brain. Consumption of water nearly saturated with H2 also prevents chronic neurodegenerative diseases including Parkinson’s disease in animal and clinical studies. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the remarkable effect of a small amount of H2 remain unclear. Here, we investigated the ef

Molecular Hydrogen in Drinking Water Protects against Neurodegenerative Changes Induced by Traumatic Brain Injury

MHID-0185761PMID: 252512202014PLoS ONE

Kenji Dohi, Brian C. Kraemer, Michelle A. Erickson, Pamela J. McMillan, Andrej Kovac, Zuzana Flachbartova, et al.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) in its various forms has emerged as a major problem for modern society. Acute TBI can transform into a chronic condition and be a risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, probably through induction of oxidative stress and neuroinflammation. Here, we examined the ability of the antioxidant molecular hydrogen given in drink

Hydrogen-supplemented drinking water protects cardiac allografts from inflammation-associated deterioration

MHID-7737580PMID: 231402242012Transplant International

Recent evidence suggests that molecular hydrogen has therapeutic value for dis- ease states that involve inflammation. We hypothesized that drinking hydro- gen-rich water (HW) daily would protect cardiac and aortic allograft recipients from inflammation-associated deterioration. Heterotopic heart transplantation with short-course tacrolimus immunosuppression and orthotopic aortic trans- plantation w
