Key Words Chronic radiation proctitis; Endoscopic views; Endoscopic scoring; Tubulin; Rat model
Core Tip Chronic radiation proctitis can be induced by a single dose of 20-35 Gy irradiation, which simplifies the modeling procedure while recapitulating two major human pathological features: Telangiectasia and progressive fibrosis. The formation of chronic injury is associated with the destruction of microtubule protein, the low expression of tubulin at 2 weeks after irradiation can serve as an early indicator for the transition of rectal toward chronic radiation injury. After radiation without intervention, around the eighth week, chronic manifestations such as capillary dilation would appear. The observation period for the therapeutic effect should be extended to at least 8 weeks.
