Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To elucidate the molecular target of hydrogen, we compared multiple metabolites between stroke model mice treated with hydrogen inhalation or control. We have published a research paper on the utilization of this technology. To elucidate how the hydrogen molecule reach the stroke area, we have performed computer simulation in combination with actual measurements of hydrogen in the brain. These results suggested simple diffusion of hydrogen gas. To confirm this finding, we measured the hydrogen concentration in locations with different distances from the air way in the brain. This did not give meaning full results mainly because the size of brain was too small in mice.
