The repair of infected bone defects (IBDs) presents a significant clinical challenge due to recurrent infections and inflammation. Characterized by reactive oxygen species (ROS) bursts and mitochondrial dysfunction, IBDs generates to a vicious oxidation-inflammation cycle that impairs bone remodeling. To address this, we developed a double-network hydrogel scaffold composed of phenylboronic acid-m

Hydrogen Gas Attenuates Toxic Metabolites and Oxidative Stress-Mediated Signaling to Inhibit Neurodegeneration and Enhance Memory in Alzheimer’s Disease Models

MHID-1674678PMID: 407251672025International Journal of Molecular Sciences

Sofian Abdul-Nasir, Cat Tuong Chau, Tien Thuy Nguyen, Johny Bajgai, Md. Habibur Rahman, Kwon Hwang-Un, et al.

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

(1) Background: Water, comprising about 70–80% of cellular mass, is the most abundant constituent of living cells. Upon exposure to ionizing radiation, water undergoes radiolysis, generating a variety of reactive species, including free radicals and molecular products. Among these, hydroxyl radicals (•OH) are particularly damaging due to their very high reactivity and their capacity to induce oxid

Shuto Negishi, Mikako Ito, Tomoya Hasegawa, Hikaru Otake, Bisei Ohkawara, Akio Masuda, et al.

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

Mitochondria originated from aerobic bacteria in endosymbiosis. Through this symbiosis, eukaryotes acquired an efficient energy-producing system, but at the cost of exposure to oxidative stress from reactive oxygen species (ROS). Molecular hydrogen (H2) was recently identified as an antioxidant that selectively reduces ROS, such as hydroxyl radicals and peroxynitrite, which are strong oxidants, and
