Oxidative stress occurs when cellular production of reactive oxygen species outweighs the protective capacity of antioxidant defences. Reactive oxygen species are generated as by\u2010products of cellular metabolism, primarily in the mitochondria. Herein, we present a novel investigation of the effects of molecular hydrogen (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\"><jats:roman>H<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub><\/jats:roman><\/jats:styled-content>) on retinal cells exposed to oxidative stress.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>We cultured adult rat retinal tissues in an organotypic culture system with a nitric oxide donor, <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\"><jats:italic>S<\/jats:italic><\/jats:styled-content>\u2010nitroso\u2010<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\"><jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic><\/jats:styled-content>\u2010acetylpenicillamine, in the presence or absence of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\"><jats:roman>H<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub><\/jats:roman><\/jats:styled-content>.
