Background: Sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) is a cognitive dysfunction caused by sepsis. Hyperphosphorylated tau is considered to play a significant role in the progression of neurodegenerative disease and also contributes to cognitive dysfunction in septic mice. Molecular hydrogen (H2) plays an…

Background: Sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) is a complication of the central nervous system in patients with sepsis. Currently, no effective treatment for sepsis is available. Hydrogen plays a protective role in different diseases; however, the detailed mechanism of hydrogen-treated disease remains…

Background: Multiple organ failure (MOF) is the main cause of early death in septic shock. Lungs are among the organs that are affected in MOF, resulting in acute lung injury. A large number of inflammatory factors and stress injury in…

Background: Activated inflammatory cells produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) to eliminate pathogens. Under normal conditions, the pathogens are taken care of, and tissues are repaired. However, in periodontal disease, persistent inflammation causes increased ROS release and impaired healing. Therefore, removal…

Objective: To investigate the effect of hydrogen gas on NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasomes in the cerebral cortex of rats with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods: 120 adult male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rates were randomly divided into 5 groups (n…
