Protection of the hematopoietic system against radiation-induced damage: drugs, mechanisms, and developments. Arch Pharm Res 2022; 45:558-571. [PMID: 35951164 DOI: 10.1007/s12272-022-01400-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2022] [Accepted: 08/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/12/2022]
Abstract
Sometimes, people can be exposed to moderate or high doses of radiation accidentally or through the environment. Radiation can cause great harm to several systems within organisms, especially the hematopoietic system. Several types of drugs protect the hematopoietic system against radiation damage in different ways. They can be classified as "synthetic drugs" and "natural compounds." Their cellular mechanisms to protect organisms from radiation damage include free radical-scavenging, anti-oxidation, reducing genotoxicity and apoptosis, and alleviating suppression of the bone marrow. These topics have been reviewed to provide new ideas for the development and research of drugs alleviating radiation-induced damage to the hematopoietic system.

Mol Nutr Food Res 2022; 66:e2200126.

Abstract
SCOPE Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is one of the leading crops worldwide, containing high nutritional components such as fiber and polyphenols. Root tuber of Simon 1 (SIMON), a cultivar of sweet potato, is a folk food in China with a hemostasis function but lacking experimental data support. METHODS AND RESULTS Now the protective effect of SIMON on chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia (CIT), a serious complication of cancer treatment, is investigated for the first time by a CIT mouse model induced by intraperitoneal injection of carboplatin. As a result, SIMON raises the number of peripheral platelets, white blood cells, and bone marrow nucleated cells in CIT mice significantly. Besides, carboplatin-induced atrophy of the thymus, spleen, and disordered metabolism of the inflammatory immune system and glycerophospholipids are also reversed by SIMON. Phytochemical analysis of SIMON indicates 16 compounds including eight phenolic derivatives, which might be associated with its anti-CIT bioactivity. CONCLUSION Sweet potato (SIMON) may be an efficient function food in the prevention of bleeding disorders.

Qu X, Li Q, Zhang X, Wang Z, Wang S, Zhou Z. Amentoflavone protects the hematopoietic system of mice against γ-irradiation. Arch Pharm Res 2019; 42:1021-1029. [PMID: 31549342 DOI: 10.1007/s12272-019-01187-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2019] [Accepted: 09/14/2019] [Indexed: 10/25/2022]
Abstract
Some flavonoids have been shown to exhibit good antioxidant activity and protect mice from damage induced by radiation. Amentoflavone (AMF), a biflavonoid derived from the traditional herb-Selaginella tamariscina, has been reported to have antioxidant properties. The protective effects and mechanism of action of AMF against radiation injury remain unknown. In this study, male C57BL/6 mice were subjected to total-body 60Co γ-irradiation at 7.5 or 3.0 Gy. The survival rate and mean survival time were evaluated to determine the radioprotective effect of AMF. Number of peripheral blood cells, frequency of colony forming unit-granulocytes, monocytes and micronuclei were measured to assess the protective effects of AMF on the hematopoietic system. Levels of superoxide dismutase and glutathione, and pathological changes in the bone marrow were determined. Additionally, next-generation sequencing technology was used to explore potential targets of AMF. We observed that AMF markedly extends average survival time, reduces injury to the hematopoietic system and promotes its recovery. Furthermore, treatment with AMF significantly attenuated radiation-induced oxidative stress. In addition, AMF had a significant effect on gene tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced protein 2. Together, the results of this study suggest that AMF is a potential protective agent against radiation injury.

SVP-B5 peptide from Buthus martensii Karsch scorpion venom exerts hyperproliferative effects on irradiated hematopoietic cells. Exp Ther Med 2017; 14:5081-5086. [PMID: 29201218 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2017.5152] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2016] [Accepted: 06/02/2017] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
Previous studies have demonstrated the radioprotective efficacy of scorpion venom peptide, fraction II (SVPII) from the venom of Buthus martensii Karsch. In the present study, the SVP-B5 polypeptide, which is one of the active components of SVPII, was purified using a two-step chromatographic process. SVP-B5 significantly promoted the proliferation of irradiated M-NFS-60 mouse-derived myelocytic leukemia cells. In addition, SVP-B5 effectively and persistently promoted hematopoietic recovery and expansion of hematopoietic cells after irradiation as demonstrated by cobblestone area forming cell and long-term bone marrow culture assays. Treatment of M-NFS-60 cells with SVP-B5 upregulated the expression of interleukin 3 receptor and activated the Janus kinase-2/signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 signaling pathway. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that SVP-B5 has growth factor-like properties and may be used as a therapeutic modality in the recovery of severe myelosuppression, which is a common side effect of radiotherapy.
