H2HUBB TAKEAWAY
This narrative review examined the available molecular-hydrogen literature. The delivery of molecular hydrogen (H₂) is increasingly recognized for its potential in precision immunomodulation, primarily through multiple pathways such as antioxidant action, modulation of inflammatory factors, and inhibition of apoptosis. To address limitations such as charge recombination in narrow‐bandgap materials, Z‐type nanocatalysts like SnS 1.68 ‐WO 2.41, which combine high reduction and oxidation potentials, have been developed to enhance charge separation and NIR absorption, enabling efficient H₂ generation. [ 58 ] Building upon this progress, further advancements have led to the development of multiphoton‐responsive NIR photocatalysts. The reviewed evidence adds support for molecular hydrogen's therapeutic potential across the conditions, mechanisms, or outcomes examined.
