This project is based on the hypothesis that renal injury will occur after certain types of radiological terrorism events, and that this injury can be both mitigated and treated. We are using the convention adopted by recent NCI workshops that: "mitigation" refers to therapies that are effective when begun after irradiation, but before there is pathophysiological evidence of radiation injury; and "treatment" refers to therapies which are effective when begun after pathophysiological evidence of radiation injury is present. We have used a rat total body irradiation (TBI) model to demonstrate that angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin II (All) type-1 receptor antagonists (AT1 blockers) are effective for the mitigation and treatment of radiation-induced renal injury. Our previous studies have used the types of fractionated high-dose-rate radiation schedules that are used in radiation oncology and bone marrow transplantation (BMT), have been oriented towards understanding the pathophysiological basis of the injury, and have often used agents that are not yet approved for human use. The proposed studies will use the types of radiation schedules most likely to present in radiological terrorism events (single doses at high or low dose rates) and will focus on developing products suitable for clinical use. The specific aims of this proposal are to: demonstrate that captopril (an FDA-approved ACE inhibitor) and losartan (an FDA-approved AT1 blocker) can be used to both mitigate and treat the radiation-induced renal injuries that could arise from radiological terrorism; determine whether these agents are acting via suppression of chronic oxidative stress; and determine whether an in vitro glomerular leakage assay can be used as a high through-put screening tool for finding new mitigators of radiation-induced renal injury. In summary, experimental studies suggest radiation-induced renal injury can be treated. The goal of this project is to bring one or more of these experimental approaches into clinical practice.

该项目基于这样的假设：某些类型的放射性恐怖主义事件后会发生肾损伤，并且这种损伤可以减轻和治疗。我们使用最近 NCI 研讨会采用的惯例：“缓解”是指在辐射后但在出现辐射损伤的病理生理学证据之前开始的治疗有效； “治疗”是指在存在放射损伤的病理生理学证据后开始时有效的治疗。我们使用大鼠全身照射（TBI）模型来证明血管紧张素转换酶（ACE）抑制剂和血管紧张素II（All）1型受体拮抗剂（AT1阻滞剂）可有效缓解和治疗放射性肾损伤。我们之前的研究使用了以下类型 用于放射肿瘤学和骨髓移植 (BMT) 的分段高剂量率放射方案旨在了解损伤的病理生理学基础，并且经常使用尚未批准用于人类的药物。拟议的研究将使用最有可能出现在放射性恐怖主义事件中的辐射计划类型（高或低剂量率的单剂量），并将重点放在开发适合临床使用的产品。该提案的具体目标是：证明卡托普利（FDA 批准的 ACE 抑制剂）和氯沙坦（FDA 批准的 AT1 阻滞剂）可用于减轻和治疗放射性恐怖主义可能引起的辐射肾损伤；确定这些药物是否通过抑制慢性氧化应激发挥作用；并确定体外肾小球渗漏测定是否可以 可用作高通量筛选工具，用于寻找新的放射性肾损伤缓解剂。总之，实验研究表明辐射引起的肾损伤是可以治疗的。该项目的目标是将这些实验方法中的一种或多种引入临床实践。
