“…In the murine model [14,[17][18][19]21], radiation-induced lipid peroxidation occurs in fetal brain cultures [14], liver [17][18][19], and serum [21] as well as in the ileum, as reported in this chapter. A wide range of agents has been shown to effectively inhibit radiation-induced lipid peroxidation, including Nacetylcysteine [15], melatonin [16], vitamin E [20,22], MnSOD-Plasmid Liposomes [14], leaf extract of Moringa oleifera [17], cinnamon extract [18], green tea polyphenol [21], hesperidin [19], and 17-DMAG [Lu and Kiang, unpublished data]. Since the response to radiation involves many signal transduction pathways, a combination of drugs targeting different signaling pathways may be a useful approach to address the difficult problem of protecting from ionizing radiation injury.…”
