Hydrogen-rich saline prevents neointima formation after carotid balloon injury

In Animal studies, Cardiovascular by CHESS

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a pivotal role in neointima hyperplasia after balloon injury. Molecular hydrogen has emerged as a novel antioxidant and has been proven effective in treating many diseases. Authors aimed to determine the mechanism by which hydrogen affects neointima formation. They assessed the influence of a hydrogen-rich saline solution (HRSS) by daily injection in rats. Rats were …
