Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a prominent risk factor for the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD). To date, the related mechanism and effective therapy have not been rigorously explored. The present study aims to investigate the reno-protection of hydrogen-rich saline (HRS) against ischemia/reperfusion (IR)-induced AKI. Adult male C57 mice were randomly allocated into three groups: Sham, IR, IR+HRS. Renal …
Hydrogen attenuates acute kidney injury
Acute kidney injury (AKI) impacts the survival of liver transplant recipients severely. To date, the related mechanism and effective therapy have not been rigorously explored. The present study aimed to explore the role of p53-mediated autophagy in the protective effect of hydrogen-rich saline (HRS) on AKI after orthotropic liver transplantation (OLT). Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly allocated into four …
Hydrogen-rich saline attenuates acute renal injury
Hydrogen (H2), a new antioxidant, was reported to reduce (•)OH and ONOO(-) selectively and inhibit certain proinflammatory mediators to product, without disturbing metabolic redox reactions or ROS involved in cell signaling. The authors aim to explore its protective effects on acute renal injury in sodium taurocholate-induced acute pancreatitis and its possible mechanisms. Rats were injected with hydrogen-rich saline (HRS group) …
