Materials and Methods: C57BL/6HNsd female mice received intraesophageal F15 formulation containing JP4-039 (4 mg/ml in 100 μl volumes) 10 minutes before 28 or 29 Gy upper body irradiation compared to MnSOD-PL (100 μl containing 100 μg plasmid) 24 hours prior to irradiation. Subgroups received 1×107 C57BL/6HNsd, GFP + male bone marrow cells intravenously 5 days after irradiation. Results: JP4-039/F15 or MnSOD-PL increased survival compared to irradiated controls (p<0.0001 for either). Marrow injection further increased survival (p=0.0462 and 0.0351, respectively). Esophagi removed at 1, 3, 7, 14, 24, or 60 days showed bone marrow-derived cells in the esophagi. Conclusion: Intraesophageal GS-nitroxide radioprotection is mediated primarily through recovery of endogenous esophageal progenitor cells. date: 2010-01-01 date_type: published publication: In Vivo volume: 24 number: 6 pagerange: 811 - 819 refereed: TRUE issn: 0258-851X other_id: NLM NIHMS426447 other_id: NLM PMC3521523 pmcid: PMC3521523 pmid: 21164038 mesh_headings: Animals mesh_headings: Bone Marrow Transplantation mesh_headings: Cytoprotection mesh_headings: Drug Delivery Systems mesh_headings: Esophagitis--pathology mesh_headings: Esophagitis--prevention & control mesh_headings: Esophagitis--therapy mesh_headings: Esophagus--drug effects mesh_headings: Esophagus--pathology mesh_headings: Esophagus--radiation effects mesh_headings: Female mesh_headings: Liposomes--therapeutic use mesh_headings: Male mesh_headings: Mice mesh_headings: Mice, Inbred C57BL mesh_headings: Nitrogen Oxides--administration & dosage mesh_headings: Nitrogen Oxides--pharmacokinetics mesh_headings: Nitrogen Oxides--pharmacology mesh_headings: Radiation Injuries, Experimental--pathology mesh_headings: Radiation Injuries, Experimental--prevention & control mesh_headings: Radiation Injuries, Experimental--therapy chemical_names: JP4-039 chemical_names: Liposomes chemical_names: Nitrogen Oxides citation: Epperly, MW and Goff, JP and Li, S and Gao, X and Wipf, P and Dixon, T and Wang, H and Franicola, D and Shen, H and Rwigema, JCM and Kagan, V and Bernard, M and Greenberger, JS (2010) Intraesophageal administration of GS-nitroxide (JP4-039) protects against ionizing irradiation-induced esophagitis.
