Animal StudyHighlightedSocial Communication of Maternal Immune Activation-Affected Offspring Is Improved by Si-Based Hydrogen-Producing AgentMHID-1698660PMID: 354927052022Frontiers in PsychiatryNoriyoshi Usui, Kazumasa Matsumoto-Miyai, Yoshihisa Koyama, Yuki Kobayashi, Yukiko Nakamura, Hikaru Kobayashi, et al.Maternal immune activation (MIA) is triggered by infection or autoimmune predisposition during pregnancy, and cytokines produced by MIA are transmitted through the placenta to the fetal brain, implicating at the onset risks and vulnerability for developmental and psychiatric disorders, such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and schizophrenia. To address these kinds of problem in child health, we h
Animal StudyHighlightedHydrogen-Rich Water Ameliorates Autistic-Like Behavioral Abnormalities in Valproic Acid-Treated Adolescent Mice OffspringMHID-7672684PMID: 301277282018Frontiers in Behavioral NeuroscienceQingjun Guo, Xi Yin, Meng Qiao, Yujiao Jia, Dandan Chen, Juan Shao, et al.Due to its anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects, recent research has demonstrated that molecular hydrogen can serve as a new medical approach for depression, anxiety and traumatic brain injury. However, its potential effects on neurodevelopmental diseases, such as autism are still elusive. The present study aims to investigate the potential effects of hydrogen-rich water (HRW) administratio
