Animal StudyHighlightedMolecular hydrogen as a potential mediator of the antitumor effect of inulin consumptionMHID-4439338PMID: 401810802025Scientific ReportsVictor Pascal-Moussellard, Jean-Pierre Alcaraz, Stéphane Tanguy, Cordélia Salomez-Ihl, Philippe Cinquin, François Boucher, et al.Inulin consumption and dihydrogen (H2) administration both exert antitumor effects on preclinical models as well as in clinical trials. As H2 is one of the major byproducts of inulin fermentation by bacterial species of the gut microbiota (GM), we hypothesized that H2 could mediate the antitumor effects of inulin. To provide evidence in favor of this hypothesis, we first determined the pattern of
