Use of Hydrogen as a Novel Therapeutic Strategy Against Photoreceptor Degeneration in Retinitis Pigmentosa Patients.
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a heterogeneous group of inherited retinal dystrophies characterized by progressive photoreceptor apoptosis. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been recognized as critical initiators of the photoreceptor apoptosis in RP. Photoreceptor survival in RP mutants will not only require the inhibition of effectors of apoptotic machinery, but also the elimination of the initiating upstream signals, such as ROS.

This animal study examined Effect of molecular hydrogen, a novelly-established antioxidant, on the retinal degeneration of hereditary retinitis pigmentosa: an study. The abstract describes Mouse model; hydrogen delivered as hydrogen-rich saline. The abstract reports: The ERG amplitude in mice from the control and H intervention groups showed no statistical differences ( 0.05).

This uncontrolled human study examined The clinical research on the effect of hydrogen-rich water on primary retinitis pigmentosa. The abstract describes Human participants; sample size 13; hydrogen delivered as hydrogen water. The abstract reports: Short-term HRW drinking slightly improved visual function in patients with primary RP, whereas no significant improvement was found in the thickness of the retina….
