| description | The combination of thoracic radiotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) had demonstrated a synergistic therapeutic effect, albeit with the occurrence of overlapping pulmonary toxicities. We established a mouse model using programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) antibody at different time points after thoracic radiotherapy. Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining, as well as TUNEL staining, were utilized for the morphological assessment of lung tissue damage. Inflammatory cells and cytokines present in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were analyzed using flow cytometry and cytometric bead array immunoassay (CBA). Additionally, immunohistochemistry (IHC) and immunofluorescence (IF) staining were conducted to observe the infiltration of inflammatory cells in lung tissue. Immediate administration of PD-1 antibody after thoracic radiotherapy resulted in more severe lung tissue injury compared to delayed administration. Concurrent treatment led to an increase in lymphocytes and neutrophils in BALF, as well as higher levels of inflammatory cytokines. IHC and IF analysis revealed that neutrophils, macrophages, and lymphocytes were more prominent in the concurrent treatment group. A more severe lung injury occurred when PD-1 antibody was given simultaneously with thoracic radiotherapy, possibly due to increased inflammation caused by the combination treatment. |
