Research progress of hydrogen in spinal cord inury / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Spinal cord injury is a devastating nervous system disease, which is the main cause of disability and death in young people.But there is no definite method to treat spinal cord injury.Hydrogen is the least dense, colorless and tasteless gas, which has flammability and certain reducibility, and can selectively clear oxygen free radicals.At present, hydrogen has become a hot spot in the treatment of diseases, including multiple organ ischemia-reperfusion injury, neurodegenerative diseases, bone and joint diseases, respiratory system diseases.It can further explore the mechanism of inflammation injury, autophagy and the possible neuroprotective pathophysiological mechanism of hydrogen in the spinal cord injury model, so as to improve the recovery of nerve function after spinal cord injury.
