BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Exposure of the normal lung tissue around the cancerous tumor during radiotherapy causes serious side effects such as pneumonitis and pulmonary fibrosis. Radioprotectors used during cancer radiotherapy could protect the patient from side effects induced by radiation injury of the normal tissue. Delphinidin has strong antioxidant properties, and it works as the driving forc...

BACKGROUND/AIM To determine whether Gramicidin S (GS)-nitroxide, JP4-039, esophageal radiation protection protected lung tumors in a transgenic model, LoxP-Stoop-LoxP Kristen Rat Sarcoma Viral oncogene (LSL-K-RAS) mice were administered intra-tracheal- Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) recombinase, bilateral lung tumors were confirmed at 11 weeks, then thoracic irradiation was deliv...

The role of radiation therapy (RT) in lung cancer is long established; some of the earliest Radiation Therapy Oncology Group reports dealt with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).[1,2] More recently, the advent of stereotactic body RT (SBRT) techniques has provided significant local control rates after focused treatment of selected small metastases and inoperable early stage lesions.[3,4] Our c...

Background & Aims: The main aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the photon energies (6 and 15 MV) and the number of radiation fields (3 fields and 4 fields) on tumor dose distribution and dose received by organs at risk in radiation therapy of bladder cancer. Materials & Methods: In this study, CT images of 12 patients with bladder cancer were used. And 8 different radiation treatme...

Radiation-induced lung fibrosis (RILF) is a common side effect for patients with thoracic cancer receiving radiation therapy. RILF is characterized by excessive collagen deposition mediated by TGF-β1 and its downstream factor SMAD3, but the exact molecular mechanism leading to fibrosis is yet to be determined. The present study investigated the impact of miR-140 on RILF development. Herein, we ...

Combined therapy with clarithromycin (CLTR) and N–acetyl cysteine (NAC) may be useful in diseases with impaired oxidant-antioxidant balance, fibroblast proliferation, and collagen deposition such as pulmonary fibrosis. Activated inflammatory cells which accumulate in the lower airways may release increased amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) when accompanied with a deficiency in glut...

Radiation-induced lung injury is a well-described complication of nuclear accidents, marrow-transplant pretreatment and thoracic radiotherapy. The mechanism is complex and no special therapy for it is available at present. To study radiation pulmonary injury following heavy ion radiotherapy for thoracic tumors, Kunming mice were randomly divided into 4 groups: normal control and 2, 4 and 6 Gy i...

Reports of chronic eosinophilic pneumonia (CEP) after radiation therapy are limited to breast cancer. We herein describe a case of CEP after radiation therapy for lung cancer. The patient was a 65-year-old man who had asymptomatic peripheral blood eosinophilia but no history of asthma or allergy. One month after completion of radiation therapy, chest CT scan revealed infiltrates inside the irra...

More than half of all solid tumors receive external beam ionizing radiation as part of multimodality treatment. The goal of radiation treatment is to treat disease while avoiding normal tissue toxicity. In many sites, dose escalation has been shown to offer local tumor control benefits. This has often been reported in the literature addressing irradiation of lung tumors. Lung cancer is the seco...
