Figure 1: Potential employment of hydrogen therapy for cancer treatment. Hydrogen administration can exert antitumoral effects by different molecular mechanisms, including the regulation of intracellular ROS production, the reduction of acute/chronic inflammation in damaged tissues, the modulation of immune response, and a better selectivity towards cancer cells than normal cells, which associates with a good safety profile of this treatment.
