Pulmonary toxicity of bleomycin.
Diffuse pulmonary fibrosis is associated with bleomycin administration to humans. The sequential reactions of lung cells to this drug have now been investigated in mice following injection of 20 mg/kg bleomycin twice per week for 4 to 8 weeks. Cytoplasmic and subendothelial edema was first observed in large vessels and by 4 weeks involved the capillaries. The reaction in many animals did not pr...
متن کاملBleomycin induced pulmonary toxicity in patients with germ cell tumours.
BACKGROUND Bleomycin is a cytotoxic drug used in treatment of Germ Cell Tumours (GCTs) and is associated with pulmonary toxicity. Bleomycin pulmonary toxicity (BPT) manifests predominantly as pulmonary fibrosis, organising pneumonia (OP) or Nonspecific Interstitial Pneumonitis (NSIP). Our objectives were to determine the incidence of BPT, describe the common HRCT patterns of pulmonary toxicity ...
متن کاملSaffron Protection against Bleomycin-Induced Pulmonary Fibrosis in Rats
Background: Bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis has been accepted as an animal model for fibrosis in rats. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of saffron aqueous extract on this disorder paving the way for more investigation in treating idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in human. Methods: Male Wistar rats (250–300 gr) were instilled a single dose of bleomycin (5 mg/kg) via in...
متن کاملLate pulmonary complications of treating Hodgkin lymphoma: bleomycin-induced toxicity.
INTRODUCTION Survival of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients has significantly improved in recent decades. The current first-line therapy is doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, dacarbazine (ABVD) ± irradiation and may cause pulmonary toxicity. Strategies to reduce late toxicity as well as increase survival rate are of interest. PATIENTS AND METHODS Pulmonary function of previously treated HL pati...
متن کاملMicroRNA profiling implicates the insulin-like growth factor pathway in bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice
BACKGROUND Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a disease characterized by alveolar epithelial cell injury, inflammatory cell infiltration and deposition of extracellular matrix in lung tissue. As mouse models of bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis display many of the same phenotypes observed in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, they have been used to study various aspects of the diseas...
