However, significant beneficial effects from a radical-scavenging activity of hydrogen are unlikely to occur in our body, because (i) the concentration of hydrogen is too low compared to those of nucleophilic biomolecules, (ii) hydrogen rapidly dissipates from our body, mostly in the breath, and returns to baseline in ~30 minutes,<sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R20-3\">20<\/a><\/sup><sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R25-3\">25<\/a><\/sup> (iii) the reaction rate constant between hydrogen and hydroxyl radical is 4.2 \u00d7 10<sup xmlns_mrws=\"http:\/\/webservices.ovid.com\/mrws\/1.0\">7<\/sup> M\/s, which is three orders of magnitude slower than most reactions with hydroxyl radicals,<sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R35-3\">35<\/a><\/sup> and (iv) intestinal bacteria produces 12 L of hydrogen in a day by metabolizing only 40 g carbohydrate,<sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R36-3\">36<\/a><\/sup><sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R37-3\">37<\/a><\/sup> which constantly yields on average 10 ppm (2\u201312 ppm) of hydrogen in our breath.<sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R20-3\">20<\/a><\/sup><sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R26-3\">26<\/a><\/sup><sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R38-3\">38<\/a><\/sup><sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R39-3\">39<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n<p id=\"O13-3-5\">Hydrogen has been reported to decrease urinary 8-OHdG,<sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R26-3\">26<\/a><\/sup> and tissue malondialdehyde, a marker of lipid peroxidation.<sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R40-3\">40<\/a><\/sup> However, in our study, inhalation of hydrogen gas mildly increased ROS production as measured by 8-OHdG. Mild increases in ROS production may provide beneficial effects by evoking hormesis. Hormesis is a physiological process, in which mitochondrial stress activates cytosolic signaling pathways to make the cells less susceptible to oxidative damage.<sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R41-3\">41<\/a><\/sup> Indeed, exercise-induced ROS production plays critical roles in mediating the benefits and cellular adaptations of exercise training.

This hypothesis is corroborated by several other studies demonistrating that hydrogen administration increases ROS production, and are accompanied by a beneficial effect. For example, in young athletes, strenuous exercise increased the blood level of derivatives of reactive oxidative metabolites, and administration of hydrogen water mildly potentiated its increase while also suppressing the elevation of blood lactate and improving exercise-induced decline of muscle function.<sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R44-3\">44<\/a><\/sup> Similarly, in a mouse model of a surgically injured brain, hydrogen increased malondialdehyde in the brain while also improving cerebral edema and the neurobehavioral score.<sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R45-3\">45<\/a><\/sup> Likewise, inhalation of 2.9% hydrogen gas for 2 hours increased malondialdehyde in normal mouse brain ~4-fold.<sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R46-3\">46<\/a><\/sup> In Arabidopsis, hydrogen-rich water increased ROS production, which in turn induced drought tolerance.<sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R47-3\">47<\/a><\/sup> Lastly, Murakami et al. recently reported that hydrogen increases the mitochondrial membrane potential, and the production of superoxide radicals in SH-SY5Y cells.<sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R48-3\">48<\/a><\/sup> They also demonstrated that hydrogen-induced oxidative stress activates the Nrf2 anti-oxidative pathway, and proposed that hydrogen is a mitohormetic effector.

We also reported by meta-analysis of gene-expression profiles of normal rodent livers that hydrogen induces heat-shock response, and subsequently leads to transient arrest of cell cycles and upregulation of collagen biosynthesis,<sup><a class=\"ejp-citation-link js-ejp-citation-link\" data-reference-links=\"R59-3\">59<\/a><\/sup> which may also be a form of hormesis. Considering that the primary and long term benefits of hydrogen are unlikely due to it acting as a radical scavenger in our bodies, the mitohormetic response is an attractive and a feasible mechanism to explain the effect of hydrogen.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"ejp-article-outline-heading\" data-level=\"1\" id=\"H12-3\">CONCLUSION<\/h2>\n<p id=\"O14-3-2\">We observed that inhalation of ~1.2\u20131.4% hydrogen-air mixture for 10 minutes twice a day for 4 weeks increased urinary 8-OHdG levels by 16%, which was markedly less than the over 300% increase in diabetes, and was more comparable to the increase after a bout of strenuous exercise. Increases of oxidative stress by hydrogen have been previously reported, along with its ability to activate the Nrf2, NF-\u03baB pathways, and heat shock responses. Although we did not observe any beneficial effect of hydrogen in our short trial, we propose that the increased 8-OHdG and other reported stress responses from hydrogen indicate that its beneficial effects are partly or largely mediated by hormetic mechanisms.<\/p>\n<p id=\"O14-3-3\"><strong xmlns_mrws=\"http:\/\/webservices.ovid.com\/mrws\/1.0\">Additional file<\/strong><\/p>\n<p
