pubmed:abstractText |
Purposes: Intestinal complications after radiotherapy are caused by transmural fibrosis and impair the quality of life of cancer survivors. Radiation fibrosis was considered permanent and irreversible, but recently, its dynamic nature was shown, providing new opportunities for the development of antifibrotic therapies. Among these new targets, we identified the Rho/ROCK pathway and thought to investigate whether pravastatin treatment inhibits Rho pathway activation and elicits an antifibrotic action.
