Medical Application of Hydrogen in Hematological Diseases

الملخص EN

Hydrogen gas has been reported to have medical efficacy since the 1880s.

Still, medical researchers did not pay much attention to hydrogen gas until the 20th century.

Recent research, both basic and clinical, has proven that hydrogen is an important physiological regulatory factor with antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, and antiapoptotic effects.

In the past two decades, more than 1000 papers have been published on the topic, including organ ischemia-reperfusion injury, radiation injury, diabetes, atherosclerosis, hypertension, or cancer.

We have previously hypothesized and proven the therapeutic effects of hydrogen gas in graft-versus-host disease following stem cell transplantation.

In the current manuscript, we present the clinical advances of hydrogen gas in hematological disorders.
