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

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
