Abstract:: |
Radiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis (RIPF) is one of the most serious late complications after nuclear radiation accident, bone marrow transplantation pretreatment and thoracic tumor radiotherapy. The formation process of RIPF is complicated and the pathogenesis has not been fully elucidated. Recent studies have shown that radiation-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of lung epithelial cells is an indispensable segment of RIPF. This article reviews the role of radiation-induced lung EMT in the occurrence and development of RIPF and related drugs with EMT as a potential therapeutic target, providing ideas for the development of therapeutic drugs for RIPF in the future. |
