Embodiment Construction
[0008] According to one embodiment, the present invention generally relates to the use of peptides, thymosin beta 4 (thymosin beta 4 or Tβ4), or Tβ4 fragments such as LKKTET, conservative variants thereof (sometimes, these are also referred to as LKKTET peptides or polypeptides, also including such as N-terminal or C-terminal variants of KLKKTET and LKKTETQ) to treat, prevent or reverse the physical, cognitive, and biological damage caused by ionizing radiation exposure.
[0009] More than 50% of all cancer patients receive radiation therapy to reduce tumor size. Damage to surrounding tissues due to toxic side effects of radiation and damage to normal tissue structures, as well as direct effects of X-rays or gamma-rays, and side effects due to release of toxic substances from tumor tissue and cell debris Inflammatory, degenerative and immunological effects make the effect of radiation therapy dose-limiting. Since up to 10% of the protein in tumors is actin, and 50% of this pr...
