Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between postprandial glycemic levels based on flashmonitoring and the production of intestinal hydrogen (H2) and methane (CH4) gases based on the measurement of the amount of these gases in exhaled air. Materials and Methods: We studied 14 subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and 14 individuals without diabetes (control

Background/Objective: Dysbiosis is implicated in the pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis. Hydrogen has been reported to promote intestinal microbiota diversity and suppress ulcerative colitis progression in mice models. In this study, we investigated changes in the intestinal microbiota, therapeutic effects, and safety of hydrogen inhalation in patients with ulcerative colitis.

The gut-brain axis mediates the interaction pathway between microbiota and opioid addiction. In recent years, many studies have shown that molecular hydrogen has therapeutic and preventive effects on various diseases. This study aimed to investigate whether molecular hydrogen could serve as pharmacological intervention agent to reduce risks of reinstatement of opioid seeking and explore the mechan

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.

Methamphetamine (METH) is a potent and highly addictive psychostimulant and one of the most widely used illicit drugs, the abuse of which has become a severe public health problem worldwide. A growing amount of evidence has indicated potential connections between gut microbiota and mental disorders induced by METH and associations with neural and metabolic pathways.

Introduction: In our experiments, male wild-type mice were randomly divided into four groups: the sham, SAE, SAE + 2% hydrogen gas inhalation (H2), and SAE + hydrogen-rich water (HW) groups. The feces of the mice were collected for 16 S rDNA analysis 24 h after the models were established, and the serum and brain tissue of the mice were collected for nontargeted metabolomics analysis.

Objective: Molecular hydrogen (H2) exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects, and has shown benefits in glucose and lipid metabolism in certain animal metabolic disorder models. However, the potential benefits of H2 treatment in individuals with impaired fasting glucose (IFG) has seldom been studied. This randomized controlled study (RCT) aims to investigate the effects of hy

The intricate relationship between the gut microbiota, its metabolites, and human health has garnered significant attention in recent years because of its potential role in the development of many diseases [1]. Among the various metabolites produced by the microbiota, a group of organic acids, known as short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), has emerged as key regulators of host energy metabolism. These

Age-related diseases represent the largest threat to public health. Aging is a degenerative, systemic, multifactorial and progressive process, coupled with progressive loss of function and eventually leading to high mortality rates. Excessive levels of both pro- and anti-oxidant species qualify as oxidative stress (OS) and result in damage to molecules and cells. OS plays a crucial role in the dev

Barton et al. (2018) have recently evaluated the differences in fecal microbiota between professional rugby players and healthy age-matched sedentary controls. The authors reported a rather preferential intestinal microbiome profile in physically active individuals, characterized by the greater microbial diversity and functional/metabolic activity, as evaluated by whole metagenome shotgun sequencing

EDITORS, I have read with great interest the systematic review with meta- analysis written by Ianiro and co-workers,1 in which the authors have evaluated the efficacy of faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT, or bacteriotherapy) for the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

There is growing awareness within the scientific community of the strong connection between the inflammation in the intestine and the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease (PD). In previous studies we developed a PD animal model exposing pup rats to permethrin (PERM) pesticide. Here, we intended to explore whether in our animal model there were changes in gut permeability, fecal microbiota and hepat

Oral administration of hydrogen water ameliorates Parkinson’s disease (PD) in rats, mice, and humans. We previously reported that the number of putative hydrogen-producing bacte- ria in intestinal microbiota is low in PD compared to controls. We also reported that the amount of hydrogen produced by ingestion of lactulose is low in PD patients. The decreased hydrogen production by intestinal microb

The human gut microbiome refers to a highly diverse microbial ecosystem, which has a symbiotic relationship with the host. Molecular hydrogen (H2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) are generated by fermentative metabolism in anaerobic ecosystems. H2 generation and oxidation coupled to CO2 reduction to methane or acetate help maintain the structure of the gut microbiome. Bile acids are synthesized by hepato
