Persistent oxidative stress plays an important role in a variety of pathological processes, and the search for effective and well-tolerated antioxidants continues. Molecular hydrogen, as a therapeutic antioxidant, can selectively reduce cytotoxic oxygen radicals. The nonspecific mechanism of hydrogen as a therapeutic antioxidant makes it potentially useful in a wide range of medical applications, as demonstrated by extensive preclinical data and increasing clinical evidence. This review summarized the disease treatment and health promotion potential of hydrogen, in the fight against aging and maintain healthy and disease treatment, etc., including acute ischemia/reperfusion injury, inflammation and ulcers, metabolic disorders and neurodegenerative diseases and cancer, anticancer, radiation toxicity and the side effects of cisplatin), focuses on the clinical data. In summary, hydrogen is a potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and cell protector. Hydrogen, made up of one proton and one electron, is the lightest and most abundant element in the universe. On Earth, hydrogen does not normally exist on its own, but as a compound with other elements. The most common sources of hydrogen are hydrocarbons, water, and carbohydrates from which molecular hydrogen can be produced. More than 50 million tons of hydrogen are produced worldwide each year, making it one of the oldest molecules known to be widely used in many industrial fields. Most uses of hydrogen are based on its physical properties, such as its very low molecular weight (2.0159 g/mol H2) and very low density (0.084 g/ L at 20°C and 1 ATM), as well as its reductive chemical properties, hydrogen has the potential to be an important energy solution in the future because of its high calorific value and environmentally friendly properties. When used in fuel cells to generate electricity, only water is produced. The role and application of molecular hydrogen in medicine has been discovered by accident only in the last decade or so, and many questions remain to be fully clarified. Hydrogen is believed by many to have biodamage-resistant properties and is an essential antioxidant for all cells. The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by-products is also associated with oxidative phosphorylation of energy metabolism in aerobic organisms such as humans. Overproduction or endogenous antioxidant capacity ROS damage can lead to accumulation of ROS, it is generally believed that sustained oxidative stress plays an important role in a variety of pathology, including lifestyle related diseases, such as atherosclerosis and diabetes, high blood pressure, chronic inflammation, neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, blood vessel function decline and the aging process.
