Abstract:
Radiotherapy plays an important role in the treatment of lung cancer .Radiation-induced lung injury is a major complication in the process of radiotherapy .It is of great significance for the treatment and prog-nosis of the diseases to predict the early stage of radiation -induced lung injury in the clinical treatment .TGF-β1(transforming growthfactor-β1) can induce some inflammatory cells including lymphocytes ,neutrophils,mon-ocytes ect,contributing to the formation of fibrosis .Plasma TGF-β1 shows different levels followed different sta-ges of radiation-induced lung injury .This article reviews the value of cytokine TGF -β1 in predicting the radia-tion-induced lung injury over various aspects such as singlely used ,combined with radiation physics and other cytokines,and genomics.
