HF is a complex clinical syndrome characterized by the heart\u2019s inability to pump blood effectively, resulting in significant morbidity and mortality. After an initial cardiac event (e.g., myocardial infarction, valve dysfunction, hypertension, etc.), adaptive mechanisms are activated to preserve cardiac function. Sustained activation of these mechanisms leads to cellular and structural changes involving cardiac remodeling and hypertrophy. This ultimately leads to impaired cardiac contractility and reduced cardiac output, with a 5-year HF-associated mortality rate up to 75%. The current treatment strategies for HF are not sufficient to cover all the underlying complex mechanisms. It has been demonstrated that molecular hydrogen (H2) exerts cardioprotective effects via its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic action. The number of studies exploring beneficial effects of H2 in different HF models is increasing. This is the first review summarizing the knowledge in this field. The available literature indicates that H2 may be effective in mitigating different HF pathologies via regulating cardiac oxidative stress and inflammation, cardiomyocyte death, and mitochondrial function\/cell metabolism, as well as cardiac remodeling, including hypertrophy and fibrosis. As this area of research is still in its infancy, the feasibility and efficiency of H2 treatment in different HF types need further investigation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms262311574","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,1]],"date-time":"2025-12-01T08:13:49Z","timestamp":1764576829000},"page":"11574","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Exploring the Potential of Molecular Hydrogen in Different Heart Failure Models: A Review"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"26","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-2652-5790","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Daria","family":"Kornieieva","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre of Experimental Medicine, Slovak Academy of Sciences, 841 04 Bratislava, Slovakia"},{"name":"Institute of Biochemistry and Microbiology, Faculty of Chemical and Food Technology, Slovak University of Technology, 812 37 Bratislava, Slovakia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5283-7561","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Barbora","family":"Kalocayova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre of Experimental Medicine, Slovak Academy of Sciences, 841 04 Bratislava, Slovakia"},{"name":"Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Faculty of Pharmacy, Comenius University, 832 32 Bratislava, Slovakia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4217-4493","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jan","family":"Slezak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre of Experimental Medicine, Slovak Academy of Sciences, 841 04 Bratislava, Slovakia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6743-491X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Branislav","family":"Kura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre of Experimental Medicine, Slovak Academy of Sciences, 841 04 Bratislava, Slovakia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"e59646","article-title":"Implantation of an Isoproterenol Mini-Pump to Induce Heart Failure in Mice","volume":"152","author":"Ren","year":"2019","journal-title":"J.
