molecular hydrogen skin health study 2013 research summary

The publication “Atomic hydrogen surrounded by water molecules, H(H2O)m, modulates basal and UV-induced gene expressions in human skin in vivo.” is organized in H2HUBB under the research focus molecular hydrogen skin health study 2013. The publication is cited as Shin MH, Park R, Nojima H, Kim HC, Kim YK, Chung JH, PloS one, 2013. This animal study examined Atomic hydrogen surrounded by water molecules, H(H2O)m, modulates basal and UV-induced gene expressions in human skin in vivo. The abstract describes Animal model. The abstract reports: We found that H(H2O)m prevented UV-induced ROS generation and inhibited UV-induced MMP-1, COX-2 and IL-6 expressions, and UV-induced JNK and c-Jun phosphorylation in HaCaT…. This is an automated editorial draft based on the abstract and requires source review before publication.

Molecular hydrogen skin health study 2013 overview

Here, we investigated the effects of the atomic hydrogen surrounded by water molecules, H(H2O)m, on acute UV-induced responses and as well as skin aging. Because this is human clinical evidence, relevance depends on participant selection, controls, sample size, treatment duration, adherence, outcome measures, and replication.

Study design and hydrogen intervention

Publication type: Controlled human trial. Evidence type: Human clinical evidence. Research model or population: Human skin in vivo with HaCaT cell component. Blinding: Unknown. Control status: Unknown.

Delivery method: Other or not reported.

Reported findings and scientific interpretation

For this molecular hydrogen skin health study 2013, the study record reports the following: The abstract reports: We found that H(H2O)m prevented UV-induced ROS generation and inhibited UV-induced MMP-1, COX-2 and IL-6 expressions, and UV-induced JNK and c-Jun phosphorylation in HaCaT…

These findings should be interpreted as one piece of evidence rather than as a stand-alone medical conclusion. Results can be influenced by the research model, study design, treatment protocol, sample size, outcome selection, statistical methods, and whether the findings have been independently reproduced.

How this research record was prepared

H2HUBB organizes bibliographic details, study design information, intervention data, outcomes, limitations, and safety notes from the available scientific source. Automated classification supports database organization, but it does not replace critical reading of the complete paper. Source identifiers, evidence labels, and delivery-method fields are retained so readers can verify the record and compare it with related publications. A missing field means the information was unavailable or not reported in the structured source; it should not be treated as a negative finding.

Limitations, safety, and original source

Limitations: Preclinical animal findings may not translate directly to human outcomes.

Safety: The abstract did not provide detailed safety or adverse-event information.

This H2HUBB page is an educational research record, not medical advice. Review the original scientific source for the complete methods and results. Continue exploring the H2HUBB Molecular Hydrogen Research Library to compare evidence types, delivery methods, and related topics.
