TL;DR: Yangyin Qingfei decoction has significant effect in the treatment of acute radiation induced lung injury after radioactive seeds implantation, and was significantly higher than that in the control group.
Abstract: [Objective] To investigate the effects of Yangyin Qingfei decoction in treating the patients diagnosed with acute radiation induced lung injury after radioactive seeds of125 I implantation for lung tumor. [Methods] Eighty patients with acute radiation induced lung injury after radioactive seeds implantation were recruited and randomly divided into the treatment group and the control group, 40 cases in each group. Traditional Chinese medicine of Yangyin Qingfei decoction was used for the treated group, while antibiotics with short-term hormone therapy were used in the control group. The results were evaluated using the same standard 4 week later. [Results]The effective rate in the treated group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P0.05). [Conclusion] Yangyin Qingfei decoction has significant effect in the treatment of acute radiation induced lung injury after radioactive seeds implantation.

TL;DR: The mesenchymal stem cell exosome has the advantages of high security, stable chemical property and easiness in storage, and a new way is provided for safely and effectively treating the RILI.
Abstract: The invention discloses application of a mesenchymal stem cell exosome to preparation of a medicament for preventing and treating radiation-induced lung injury (RILI). After a radiated mouse with lunginjury is treated by adopting tail vein injection administration of the mesenchymal stem cell exosome, inflammatory factor level is effectively lowered (IL-1beta, IL-6, TNF-alpha, TGF-beta); the survival rate of the mouse is improved effectively; and pneumonia and lung fibrosis lesion caused by the RILI are reduced. The mesenchymal stem cell exosome has the advantages of high security, stable chemical property and easiness in storage, and a new way is provided for safely and effectively treating the RILI.
