Hydrogen: The Antioxidant That Saves Cells
Hydrogen (H₂) gas selectively eliminates the most toxic reactive oxygen species, reducing brain damage by up to 70%
listicon
What Did They Discover?
Hydrogen selectively scavenges •OH (hydroxyl radicals), the most toxic ROS, while preserving other reactive oxygen species essential for cell signaling
listicon
How Does It Work?
In a rat cerebral infarction model, 2-4% H₂ gas inhalation reduced brain damage by 66% during reperfusion (more effective than existing treatments)
listicon
Why Does It Matter?
H₂ rapidly diffuses across membranes to reach mitochondria and nuclei, offering potential treatment for ischemia-reperfusion injuries like stroke and myocardial infarction

Key Data:

Conclusion
Hydrogen freely penetrates cell membranes and selectively eliminates toxic radicals, making it an ideal antioxidant. It represents a novel therapeutic strategy for acute oxidative stress diseases including stroke and organ transplantation.
