Background: Radiation-induced Intestinal Injury (RIII) affects quality of life in radiotherapy patients; Liangxue Guyuan Yishen Decoction (LGYD) offers protection but requires further study on its mechanism.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the heterogeneity of cellular responses in the intestine at a single-cell level following radiation and LGYD treatment.
Study Design: This study's design includes in vivo and in vitro assessments to evaluate LGYD's effects on intestinal cells post-radiation, targeting survival, recovery, and molecular pathways.

Ionizing radiation-induced injury often occurs in nuclear accidents or large-dose radiotherapy, leading to acute radiation syndromes characterized by hematopoietic and gastrointestinal injuries even to death. However, current radioprotective drugs are only used in hospitals with unavoidable side effects. Here, we heated the aqueous solution of inulin, a polysaccharide dietary fiber, forming colon-retentive gel as a radiation protector in radiotherapy.

Dynamics of gut microbiota and their associations with the corresponding hematological injuries postradiation remain to be elucidated. Using single whole-body exposure to Co- ray radiation at the sublethal dose of 2.5 Gy, we developed a beagle model of acute radiation syndrome (ARS) and then monitored the longitudinal changes of gut microbiome and hematology for 45 days.

Introduction: Radiation therapy is one of the main methods of treating pelvic malignant tumors, which provides good oncological results. Specific features of the pelvic anatomy may result in various radiation injuries of adjacent organs, which are complicated by genitourinary fistulas, post-radiation fibrosis with the formation of hydronephrosis, microcyst, reducing the quality of life.
Aim: To describe the relevance and importance of the correct choice of surgical treatment in patients with post-radiation urinary tract injuries.
