Molecular hydrogen is gaining increasing attention as an antioxidant, anti-
inflammatory, and antiapoptotic agent. Once considered an inert gas, it reveals current
therapeutic potential among others in inflammatory diseases, cancer, and sports medicine,
among others. The present review aims to provide a consistent summary of the findings
of the last twenty years on the use of molecular hydrogen in

Background and Objectives: Recent studies suggest that hydrogen gas possesses anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-apoptotic properties. This study aimed to explore the therapeutic potential of hydrogen gas and assess its safety and tolerability in individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Materials and Methods: Enrolled COPD patients received standard treatments along wit

Background: Reportedly, dialysis solutions containing molecular hydrogen (H2) might ameliorate patient-reported fatigue in hemodialysis (HD) patients. However, it is unknown whether its impact might differ with different H2 levels.
Method: This single-arm, prospective observational study examined 105 patients on chronic HD (62 males; mean age, 66 years; mean HD duration, 117 months). All patients

Background: A novel hemodialysis (HD) system employing electrolyzed water containing molecular hydrogen (E-HD) has been developed to improve the bio-compatibility of HD. This study examined the impact of E-HD on changes in redox state during HD and HD-related fatigue.
Method: This single-arm, prospective observational study examined 63 patients on chronic HD (41 males; mean age, 72 ± 9 years; med

There is growing awareness within the scientific community of the strong connection between the inflammation in the intestine and the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease (PD). In previous studies we developed a PD animal model exposing pup rats to permethrin (PERM) pesticide. Here, we intended to explore whether in our animal model there were changes in gut permeability, fecal microbiota and hepat

Recent studies have revealed unique biological characteristics of molecular hydrogen (H2) as an anti-inflammatory agent. We developed a novel haemodialysis (E-HD) system delivering an H2 (30–80 ppb)-enriched dialysis solution by water electrolysis, and conducted a non-randomized, non-blinded, prospective observational study exploring its clinical impact. Prevalent chronic HD patients were allocate

AIM
To investigate the therapeutic effect of hydrogen-rich water (HRW) on inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and to explore the potential mechanisms involved.
METHODS
Male mice were randomly divided into the following four groups: control group, in which the mice received equivalent volumes of normal saline (NS) intraperitoneally (ip); dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) group, in which the mice received NS

Background: Early acute kidney injury (AKI) in severely burned patients predicts a high mortality that is multi-factorial. Hydrogen has been reported to alleviate organ injury via selective quenching of reactive oxygen species. This study investigated the potential protective effects of hydrogen against severe burn-induced early AKI in rats.
Methods: Severe burn were induced via immersing the sha

Acute lung injury (ALI) is still a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients. Recently, our and other studies have found that hydrogen gas (H2) treatment can ameliorate the lung injury induced by sepsis, ventilator, hyperoxia, and ischemia-reperfusion. However, the molecular mechanisms by which H2 ameliorates lung injury remain unclear. In the current study, we investigat

Background: Neurosurgical operations cause unavoidable damage to healthy brain tissues. Direct surgical injury as well as surgically induced oxidative stress contributes to the subsequent formation of brain edema. Therefore, we tested the neuroprotective effects of hydrogen (H2) in an established surgical brain injury (SBI) model in rats.
