Molecular hydrogen (H2) demonstrates selective antioxidant and anti-inflam-
matory properties with therapeutic potential across musculoskeletal conditions
including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, exercise-induced muscle damage,
chronic pain syndromes, tendinopathies, and muscle atrophy. This review
critically evaluates preclinical and clinical evidence for H2 therapy and identifies

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative condition in which amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques trigger oxidative stress (OS) and neuroinflammation, causing memory loss. OS and neurodegeneration can also be caused by reactive astrocytes, thereby promoting AD via toxic metabolite accumulation in the astrocytic urea cycle. However, the effect of molecular hydrogen (H2) on this cycle remains unknown. Th

In regenerative medicine, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have shown their importance and potential in tissue reconstruction and immune system modification. However, such cells’ potential is often diminished by factors such as oxidative stress, immune rejection, and inadequate engraftment. This review highlights the role of molecular hydrogen (H2) and cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) as adjunct therapi

Oxidative stress (OS) is one of the causative factors in the pathogenesis of various neurode- generative diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and cognitive dysfunction. In the present study, we investigated the effects of hydrogen (H2) gas inhalation in trimethyltin (TMT)-induced neurotoxicity and cognitive dysfunction in the C57BL/6 mice. First, mice were divided into the following groups

Oxidative stress caused by reactive oxygen species is considered a major mediator of tissue and cell injuries in various neuronal conditions, including neurological emergencies and neurodegenerative diseases. Molecular hydrogen is well characterized as a scavenger of hydroxyl radicals and peroxynitrite. Recently, the neuroprotective effects of treatment with molecular hydrogen have been reported i

Excessive production of oxygen free radicals has been regarded as a causative common denominator of many pathological processes in the animal kingdom. Hydroxyl and nitrosyl radicals represent the major cause of the destruction of biomolecules either by a direct reaction or by triggering a chain reaction of free radicals. Scavenging of free radicals may act preventively or therapeutically. A number

Molecular hydrogen (H2) is an agent with po- tential applications in oxidative stress-related and/or in- flammatory disorders. H2 is usually administered by inhaling H2-containing air (HCA) or by oral intake of H2- rich water (HRW). Despite mounting evidence, the mole- cular mechanism underlying the therapeutic effects and the optimal method of H2 administration remain unclear. Here, we investigate

Background: There is accumulating evidence that obesity is closely associated with an impaired free fatty acid metabolism as well as with insulin resistance and inflammation. Excessive fatty acid uptake mediated by fatty acid translocase CD36 plays an important role in hepatic steatosis. Molecular hydrogen has been shown to attenuate oxidative stress and improve lipid, glucose and energy metabolis

Background—We previously demonstrated that donor treatment with inhaled hydrogen protects lung grafts from cold ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury during lung transplantation. To elucidate the mechanisms underlying hydrogen’s protective effects, we conducted a gene array analysis to identify changes in gene expression associated with hydrogen treatment.
Methods—Donor rats were exposed to mechanica
