Protective effects of hydrogen-rich saline on ulcerative colitis

In Animal studies, Gut by CHESS

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is associated with enhanced production of reactive oxygen species and altered angiogenesis. Molecular hydrogen has been documented as a novel antioxidant to treat various reactive oxygen species-related diseases. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of hydrogen on UC using a rat model. UC in rats was induced with intracolonically administrated acetic acid. Hydrogen was supplied …
