Protection from radiation-induced pneumonitis using cerium oxide nanoparticles

Abstract In an effort to combat the harmful effects of radiation exposure, we propose that rare-earth cerium oxide (CeO2 ) nanoparticles (free-radical scavengers) protect normal tissue from radiation-induced damage. Preliminary studies suggest that these nanoparticles may be a therapeutic regenerati...
