Biodegradable magnesium (Mg) implant generally provides temporary fracture fixation and facilitates bone regeneration. However, the exact effects of generated Mg ions (Mg2+), hydrogen gas (H2), and hydroxide ions (OH-) by Mg degradation on enhancing fracture healing are not fully understood. Here we investigate the in vivo degradation of Mg intramedullary nail (Mg-IMN), revealing the generation of

The therapeutic potential of molecular hydrogen (H2) is emerging in a number of human diseases and in their animal models, including in particular Parkinson’s disease (PD). H2 supplementation of drinking water has been shown to exert disease-modifying effects in PD patients and neuroprotective effects in experimental PD model mice. However, H2 supplementation does not result in detectable changes

Molecular hydrogen serves as an antioxidant that reduces hydroxyl radicals, but
not the other reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. In the past year, molecular hydrogen
has been reported to prevent or ameliorate eight diseases in rodents and one in human
associated with oxidative stress. In Parkinson’s disease, mitochondrial dysfunction and
the associated oxidative stress are major causes of dopam
