HypothesisThe Hypothesis of an Effective Safe and Novel Radioprotective Agent: Hydrogen-rich SolutionMHID-5798200PMID: 212751142010West Indian Medical JournalLiren Qian, Bailong Li, Jianming Cai, Fu GaoMost ionizing radiation-induced damage is caused by radical oxygen species (ROS). Some radioprotectors, such as amifostine, exert radioprotective effects by scavenging radical oxygen species. Recent studies show that hydrogen (H2) has antioxidant activities that protect the brain and intestine against ischaemia-reperfusion injury and stroke by selectively reducing hydroxyl and peroxynitrite radica
Literature ReviewHydrogen as a Selective Antioxidant: a Review of Clinical and Experimental StudiesMHID-2963789PMID: 212269922010The Journal of International Medical ResearchY Hong, S Chen, J-M ZhangOxidative stress is implicated in the pathogenesis of many diseases; however, currently used antioxidants have a high toxicity that constrains administration to a narrow window of therapeutic dosage. There is a clear need for more effective and safer antioxidants. Diatomic hydrogen (H2) was proposed as a novel antioxidant that selectively reduces levels of toxic reactive-oxygen species. Recently,
