Therapeutic Approach to Neurodegenerative Diseases by Medical Gases: Focusing on Redox Signaling and Related Antioxidant Enzymes
Table 1
Reducing ROS by medical gases, hydrogen (H2), carbon monoxide (CO), and hydrogen sulphide (H2S). These gases can increase endogenous antioxidant enzymes and stress response protein such as HO-1, SOD, and Hsp72. Hydrogen and hydrogen sulphide can directly react with ROS and show radical scavenging effects.
