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

Molecular hydrogen ameliorates pathological states in a variety of human diseases, animal models, and cell models, but the effects of hydrogen on cancer have been rarely reported. In addition, the molecular mechanisms underlying the effects of hydrogen remain mostly unelucidated. We found that hydrogen enhances proliferation of four out of seven human cancer cell lines (the responders). The prolif

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
