Macrophages in radiation injury: a new therapeutic target
Radiotherapy can induce toxicity in healthy tissues such as radiation-induced fibrosis (RIF), and macrophages are proposed as new profibrogenic cells. In this Point-of-View, we summarize the role of the immune response in ionizing radiation injury, and ...

Radioprotective countermeasures for radiation injury (Review). [PDF]
A series of physiological and pathological changes occur after radiotherapy and accidental exposure to ionizing radiation (IR). These changes cause serious damage to human tissues and can lead to death. Radioprotective countermeasures are radioprotective

The gut microbiota as a booster for radiotherapy: novel insights into radio-protection and radiation injury. [PDF]
Approximately 60–80% of cancer patients treated with abdominopelvic radiotherapy suffer post-radiotherapy toxicities including radiation enteropathy and myelosuppression.

An interactive murine single-cell atlas of the lung responses to radiation injury. [PDF]
Radiation damages the healthy lung and triggers severe side effects. Here the authors provide a single cell atlas of the lung responses to radiation injury to explore the spatio-temporal dynamics of the mechanisms leading to radio-induced pulmonary ...

Cooperation effects of radiation and ferroptosis on tumor suppression and radiation injury. [PDF]
Ferroptosis is a kind of oxidative stress-dependent cell death characterized by iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation. It can work in conjunction with radiation to increase reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and disrupt the antioxidant system ...

Radiation injury and gut microbiota-based treatment. [PDF]
The exposure to either medical sources or accidental radiation can cause varying degrees of radiation injury (RI). RI is a common disease involving multiple human body parts and organs, yet effective treatments are currently limited.

Introduction There is an urgent need for specific and sensitive bioassays to augment biodosimetric assessments of unwanted and excessive radiation exposures that originate from unexpected nuclear/radiological events, including nuclear accidents, acts of ...

Radiation combined injury (RCI, radiation exposure coupled with other forms of injury, such as burn, wound, hemorrhage, blast, trauma and/or sepsis) comprises approximately 65% of injuries from a nuclear explosion, and greatly increases the risk of ...

Inhibition of intestinal epithelial apoptosis improves survival in a murine model of radiation combined injury [PDF]
World conditions place large populations at risk from ionizing radiation (IR) from detonation of dirty bombs or nuclear devices. In a subgroup of patients, ionizing radiation exposure would be followed by a secondary infection.
