Hydrogen has a protective effect on the brain, mainly through the following mechanisms:
1. Antioxidant effect
Hydrogen  from Hydrogen Theraphy Machinery can selectively remove cytotoxic oxygen free radicals, such as hydroxyl free radicals (·OH), thereby reducing oxidative stress damage. Oxidative stress is one of the important factors leading to neuronal damage. Hydrogen protects neurons from oxidative damage by reducing the production of free radicals.
2. Anti-inflammatory effect
Hydrogen from H2 Theraphy Machinery can reduce the number of microglia and astrocytes in damaged brain tissue or inhibit the activation of microglia, thereby alleviating inflammatory responses. In addition, hydrogen can also reduce the expression of proinflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α, further exerting anti-inflammatory effects.
3. Anti-apoptotic effect
Hydrogen from Hydrogen Theraphy Generator for home can increase the number of surviving neurons, reduce cell apoptosis, and inhibit the activity of apoptosis-related enzymes (such as caspase-3 and caspase-12). In an animal model of ischemia-reperfusion injury, hydrogen significantly reduced neuronal cell death by inhibiting the cell apoptosis pathway.
4. Improve neurological function
Hydrogen therapy has been shown to improve neurological function in a variety of neurological injury models. For example, in animal models of Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, hydrogen improved cognitive and motor function by reducing oxidative stress and neuroinflammation. In addition, in patients with acute cerebral infarction, hydrogen inhalation or hydrogen-rich saline injection can significantly improve neurological deficits.
5. Protect the blood-brain barrier
Hydrogen can protect the integrity of the blood-brain barrier and reduce blood-brain barrier damage caused by oxidative stress and inflammatory response. This helps maintain brain homeostasis and reduce further neurological damage.
Clinical application potential
The neuroprotective effect of hydrogen has been verified in a variety of animal models and clinical trials. For example, in models such as ischemia-reperfusion injury, traumatic brain injury, and subarachnoid hemorrhage, hydrogen has shown significant protective effects. In addition, when hydrogen is used in combination with hypothermia therapy, magnesium ions, etc., it may also produce a synergistic protective effect.
In summary, hydrogen protects the brain through various mechanisms such as anti-oxidation, anti-inflammation, and anti-apoptosis, and has broad application prospects.
