Abstract:
Radioactive esophagitis is one of the most common complications in thoracic tumor radiotherapy,biological factors such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs),miRNAs,and HIV infection may play key roles in the occurrence and development of radioactive esophagitis,and they have become an active field in protection areas of radiotherapy.We can identify the patients who may cause radioactive esophageal in high dose radiotherapy as early as possible,and modify the treatment plan to protect the esophagus.Therefore the biological factors of radioactive esophagitis are of important clinical significance.
