Abstract:
The common treatment of epithelial ovarian cancer is aggressive surgery followed by platinum-based cytotoxic chemotherapy. However, residual tumor cells are resistant to chemotherapeutic drugs during postoperative recurrence. The treatment of ovarian cancer requires new breakthroughs and advances. In recent years, magnesium alloy has been widely developed as a new biodegradable material because of its great potential in the field of medical devices. From the degradation products of magnesium, biodegradable magnesium implants have great potential in anti-tumor. According to the disease characteristics of ovarian cancer, we choose it to study the anti-tumor characteristics of biodegradable magnesium. We tested the anti-ovarian tumor properties of Mg through both in vivo and in vitro experiments. According to the optical in vivo imaging and relative tumor volume statistics of mice, high-purity Mg wires significantly inhibited the growth of SKOV3 cells in vivo. We find that the degradation products of Mg, Mg2+ and H2, significantly inhibit the growth of SKOV3 cells and promote their apoptosis. Our study suggests a good promise for treatment of ovarian cancer.

The effect of hydrogen-rich water on letrozole-induced polycystic ovary syndrome in rats
2023 - Ovaries - Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Research question: What is the effect of hydrogen-rich water on rats with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)? Design: Female rats were divided into four groups, each consisting of eight animals. The control group received a carboxymethyl cellulose ...
Hydrogen-rich water treatment targets RT1-Db1 and RT1-Bb to alleviate premature ovarian failure in ...
2023 - Ovaries - Premature Ovarian Failure
Background: Premature ovarian failure (POF) is defined as the cessation of ovarian function before the age of 40 years, imposing a significant health burden on patients. However, effective etiological therapy for POF is scarce. Thus, we aimed to ...
Hydrogen-rich saline attenuates chemotherapy-induced ovarian injury via regulation of oxidative ...
Hydrogen has been reported to exert a therapeutic effect in several diseases due to its antioxidative, antiinflam-matory and anti-apoptotic properties. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether hydrogen-rich saline treatment could ...
Hydrogen–oxygen therapy can alleviate radiotherapy-induced hearing loss in patients with ...
Three patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma developed binaural secretory otitis media 12, 2, and 0.5 years after radiotherapy, respectively. The secretions subsided after conventional drug and drainage treatments, but hearing continued to ...
RNA sequencing analysis reveals apoptosis induction by hydrogen treatment in endometrial cancer via ...
Background: To evaluate the activity of hydrogen in endometrial cancer and elucidate its underlying molecular mechanisms. Methods: Ishikawa, HEC1A and AN3CA cells were incubated in DMEM medium with or without hydrogen. RNA sequencing was used to ...
Investigating the Effect of Hydrogen-Rich Water on Liver Cell Injury and Liver Cancer by Regulating ...
Background Liver cancer is an extremely heterogeneous malignant disease among tumors identified to date. In recent years, a large number of studies have found that low-concentration hydrogen or hydrogen-rich water or hydrogen-saturated physiological ...
