Chemotherapy-provoked peripheral neuropathy and its associated affective disorders are important adverse effects in cancer patients, and its treatment is not completely resolved. A recent study reveals a positive interaction between molecular hydrogen (H2) and a heme oxygenase (HO-1) enzyme inducer, cobalt protoporphyrin IX (CoPP), in the inhibition of neuropathic pain provoked by nerve injury.

Hydrogenase enzymes catalyze the reversible oxidation/reduction of hydrogen (H2) and play a crucial role in microbial energy metabolism, with significant implications for human immunity. H2, produced by gut microbes during fermentation or administered exogenously, is vital in modulating oxidative stress and inflammation. In the gastrointestinal tract, microbial H2 production can reach up to 13 L/d

Gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity primarily results from renal inflammatory cascades and increased oxidative stress. This study aims to examine the effects of hydrogen-rich water (HRW) on gentamicin-induced renal damage in rats. Thirty-two rats were equally divided into four groups, including control (no treatment), hydrogen, gentamicin, and gentamicin+hydrogen. At the end of one week, all animals

Background: Dihydrogen (H2) is produced endogenously by the intestinal microbiota through the fermentation of diet carbohydrates. Over the past few years, numerous studies have demonstrated the significant therapeutic potential of H2 in various pathophysiological contexts, making the characterization of its production in laboratory species of major preclinical importance.

The Michael J. Fox Foundation has been funding research on Parkinson’s disease for 35 years, but has yet to find a cure. This is due to a problem with the philosophy behind the development of modern medical treatments. In this paper, we will introduce “smart medicine” with a substance that can solve all the problems of central nervous system drugs. The substance is the smallest diatomic molecule,

Hydrogen is a simple, colorless, and biologically active small molecule gas that can react with reactive oxygen species. Recent research suggests that hydrogen possesses several biological effects, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic effects, while exhibiting an extremely high level of safety.
