Wound healing is a complex dynamic process involving a large number of biological events. Excessive oxidative stress is a key factor delaying wound healing. Hydrogen is an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antiapoptotic medical gas with safety, effectiveness, and penetrability. However, the effects of local treatment of hydrogen on wound healing and its potential mechanisms remain unclear. In this

Molecular hydrogen exerts biological effects on nearly all organs. It has anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging effects and contributes to the regulation of autophagy and cell death. As the primary organ for gas exchange, the lungs are constantly exposed to various harmful environmental irritants. Short- or long-term exposure to these harmful substances often results in lung injury, ca

The development of stimuli-responsively degradable porous carriers for both controlled drug release and high biosafety is vitally important to their clinical translation, but still challenging at present. A new type of porphyrin–iron metal organic framework (Fe-MOF) nanocrystals is engineered here as acid-degradable drug carrier and hydrogen donor by the coordination between porphyrin and zero-val

Ageing is a physiological process of progressive decline in the organism function over time. It affects every organ in the body and is a significant risk for chronic diseases. Molecular hydrogen has therapeutic and preventive effects on various organs. It has antioxidative properties as it directly neutralizes hydroxyl radicals and reduces peroxynitrite level. It also activates Nrf2 and HO-1, which r

Molecular hydrogen has been shown to exert beneficial effects on plant growth and abiotic stress tolerance, however, the exact mechanism has not yet been fully elucidated. H2 is able to diffuse directly across the plasma membrane, which is the first barrier between H2 and cells. It is possible that H2 may exert its biological effects on plant cells by interacting with PM. Hydrogenases can catalyze

One of the beneficial effects of molecular hydrogen (H2, hydrogen gas) is neuroprotection and pre- vention of neurological disorders. It is important and useful if taking H2 every day can prevent or ameliorate the progression of neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease or Alzheimer’s disease, both lacking specific therapeutic drugs. There are several mechanisms of how H2 protects n

Molecular hydrogen (H2) is a physiologically inert gas. However, during the last 10 years, increasing evidence has revealed its biological functions under pathological conditions. More specifically, H2 has protec- tive effects against a variety of diseases, particularly nervous system disorders, which include ischemia/reperfu- sion injury, traumatic injury, subarachnoid hemorrhage, neuropathic pain

Molecular hydrogen (H2) is a colorless and odorless gas. Studies have shown that H2 inhalation has the therapeutic effects in many animal studies and clinical trials, and its application is recommended in the novel coronavirus pneumonia treatment guidelines in China recently. H2 has a relatively small molecular mass, which helps it quickly spread and penetrate cell membranes to exert a wide range

Background. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is an important treatment option for various hematopoietic diseases and certain hereditary diseases. Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) has become the main life-threatening complication and cause of death in later stage postallo-HSCT. Current treatment options for cGVHD are limited.
