1. 引言

放射治疗作为临床恶性肿瘤治疗的一线治疗方法,对多种恶性肿瘤具有很好的治疗效果,是目前应用于宫颈癌、直肠癌、膀胱癌、前列腺癌和睾丸癌等恶性肿瘤的重要治疗方式之一 [1] ,在癌症治疗过程中,约有50%~70%的癌症患者接受放疗 [2] 。伴随着术前术后放疗的广泛应用,放射治疗通过高能射线产生的电离辐射诱导癌细胞DNA损伤和死亡的同时,不可避免的使照射野范围内的组织或器官发生放射反应或放射损伤 [3] [4] 。并可能产生急性或慢性的毒副作用 [5] 。放射治疗损伤的发生或早或晚,甚至在治疗结束后仍有可能发生,损伤发生在胃肠道中时,病变可累及所有节段,形成放射性肠炎 [2] 。

放射性肠炎便是指盆腔恶性肿瘤患者放疗引起的肠道辐射损伤 [6] [7] 。按病程看,临床上公认的放射性肠炎有两种不同类型:急性放射性肠炎,在放疗后6周内发病,通常在3月内恢复正常;慢性放射性肠炎,在放疗后8~12月才出现临床症状,甚至可在放疗结束后的数年至数十年出现 [8] 。慢性放射性肠炎患者主要表现为出血性腹泻和结肠炎症反应,而急性放射性肠炎患者大部分为非出血性腹泻 [9] 。按患者临床表现来看,放射性直肠损伤可分类为毛细血管扩张型、溃疡型、狭窄型及混合型:毛细血管扩张型主要表现为便血;溃疡型则主要伴有直肠症状,包括肛门膨胀肛门疼痛、大便增多、急便、粘液性大便、下急和大便失禁;狭窄型,根据狭窄程度不同,可表现为下腹痛、排便困难、排便减少、粪便变稀、小肠梗阻等症状;混合型,症状复杂多样 [10] 。仅2015年中国骨盆恶性肿瘤新发病例数就超过50万例;75%的盆腔放疗患者发生急性放射性直肠损伤,5%~20%的患者发生慢性放射性直肠损伤 [11] 。但据Gami B等人研究报道 [12] ,81%接受盆腔放疗的患者出现胃肠道症状,只有55%的患者向医生寻求帮助,放射性肠炎发病率可能被严重低估了。随着新辅助放化疗技术应用于临床,癌症存活患者的数量增加,辐射引起的腹盆腔疾病的发病率也更是随之增加,如今放射性肠炎的研究引起了越来越多学者的重视,对于其原理机制及治疗方式更是研究的热点。

2. 放射性肠炎的发生机制

2.1. 辐射损伤的机制

大量研究表明,辐射损伤主要有两个机制:直接DNA损伤和活性氧(ROS)的产生 [13] 。辐射一方面可直接诱导DNA断裂,导致细胞的癌变或凋亡等损 [14] [15] ,另一方面引发水的辐射分解产生活性氧并引发随后的氧化应激,间接损伤DNA、脂质、蛋白质等分子的损伤 [16] [17] 。辐射引起的DNA损伤的主要类型为单链断裂(SSBs)和双链断裂(DSBs)、糖和碱基修饰以及DNA-蛋白质交联 [18] 。当DNA受到辐射损伤时将有多种细胞改变被引发,如DNA修复、细胞周期延迟或阻滞、细胞凋亡 [19] 。运动失调性毛细血管扩张症突变蛋白(ataxia telangiectasia mumted, ATM)及Rad3相关蛋白(ATR)是参与DNA损伤监测,细胞周期延迟或阻滞及DNA修复的重要蛋白。当DNA受损发生时,由Mrell、Rad50和Nbsl组成的MRN复合体感应到其发生,ATM则立即被激活,激活后的ATM可将抑癌蛋白P53、DNA修复蛋白Nibrin (NBS1)与检查点激酶2 (CHK2)等参与细胞周期调控及DNA修复等活动的多种下游靶蛋白磷酸化,直接导致细胞周期阻滞、DNA修复或凋亡 [20] 。ATR与ATM有相似的作用,但ATM主要在DNA双链断裂发生时优先被激活,而ATR则在单链DNA断裂时被激活 [21] 。同时抑癌蛋白P53也同样参与调控,当DNA受到辐射损伤时,P53与mdm2的结合减少,浓度升高,其可激活DNA修复蛋白同时促进诱导细胞周期停滞的基因的转录,而当DNA损伤程度超过自体可修复限度,P53亦可以启动细胞凋亡 [22] ,引发组织的损伤与坏死。

另一方面,大量实验数据均表明,辐射可导致机体内水分子电离产生大量的活性氧(ROS) [23] ,打破机体氧化与抗氧化平衡,导致氧化应激 [24] [25] 。机体处于氧化应激状态下,多不饱和脂肪酸发生脂质过氧化反应,导致胞膜损伤、细胞结构破坏、酶活性降低 [26] [27] 。受伤的细胞释放化学诱导因子,引发非特异性炎症 [28] [29] 。同时ROS能引发细胞中的DNA、蛋白质等生物大分子的损伤,如ROS与DNA作用形成加合物,其在DNA复制时可引发碱基错配从而引起DNA的点突变 [30] 。而与此同时DNA损伤又可以提升细胞内ROS水平 [31] ,辐射损伤的两种机制之间也存在着相互影响作用 [32] 。

2.2. 肠道损伤的发生

辐射损伤发生后,通过直接损伤DNA与产生活性氧发生氧化应激反应,大量细胞凋亡组织坏死,肠道黏膜遭到严重损伤,而细胞膜遭到大量破坏,激活NF-κB等多种转录因子,NF-KB可诱导多种与炎症相关的因子与酶激增,如肿瘤坏死因子-α (TNF-α)、白介素-6 (IL-6)、白介素-1β (IL-1β)、粘附因子、趋化因子、环氧合酶-2 (COX-2)等。另一方面,TNF-α在其作用下产生,又会激活更多的NF-κB,加重炎症反应的发生 [33] 。血管内皮细胞在辐射的作用下亦发生凋亡及上述炎症反应,后期肠道黏膜下血管内皮细胞肿胀、增生、纤维化,形成闭塞性血管炎,肠道组织缺血缺氧加剧,导致肠纤维化、肠腔狭窄等肠道组织变化,严重可致肠坏死、肠瘘、肠穿孔和肠梗阻 [34] [35] 。

3. 放射性肠炎的治疗

3.1. 细菌治疗

细菌及其衍生物用于治疗放射性肠炎为当下研究的热点问题,大量研究显示,肠道菌群调节治疗不仅可以起到抗氧化、抗炎等作用,减轻肠道受到的辐射损伤,同时一些细菌及其衍生物可以增强放疗治疗的效果。在放疗的同时行相关细菌协同治疗可起到一举多得的效果。

当患者接受放射治疗后,肠道菌群发生改变,Wang等 [36] 研究证明,放疗后患者肠道菌群的多样性明显降低。辐射损伤发生后,肠道的蠕动减低导致机会致病菌的行动阻滞,增加其定植的机会,导致肠道致病菌的大量繁殖,肠道菌群失调加剧 [37] 。Chen等 [38] 研究证明,益生菌能促进肠道中IgG、IgA、IgM等免疫球蛋白的生成,还刺激分泌性IgA的产生,免疫球蛋白的增多可以调节免疫功能,增强机体免疫力,改善肠道营养吸收利用,间接降低肠道内相关炎症因子水平 [39] 。大量实验证明通过肠道定植、抗炎作用、抗氧化能力和微生物群调节,益生菌如嗜酸乳杆菌、乳杆菌、双歧杆菌和嗜热链球菌等可以治疗胃肠道损伤 [40] [41] [42] 。而益生菌中乳酸菌的研究最为深入,Yan等的研究表明,乳酸菌分泌的p40、p75等蛋白可调节细胞因子、保护肠上皮细胞间紧密连接,同时还可以抑制p38丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(MAPK),激活COX-2通路,从而发挥抗凋亡和抗炎作用 [43] 。Sharma等研究证明,短乳杆菌CD2制成的含片使用后可以降低炎症细胞因子的表达,明显降低头颈癌患者放疗后口腔黏膜炎的发生率 [44] 。

同时,细菌治疗与放射治疗相结合的,还有增强放疗效果的作用,如李斯特菌就已被证明可作为载体将放射性核素传递至肿瘤部位,提高治疗的效率,减少对机体正常组织的伤害。Quispe-Tintaya等人 [45] 和Chandra等人 [46] 就将减毒李斯特菌放射性同位素188铼(188Re)偶联治疗胰腺癌,李斯特菌可产生IL-6等信号分子,这些信号分子被肿瘤细胞选择性地吸引,可运载放射性同位素至肿瘤细胞;同时李斯特菌自身就可以通过产生ROS引起DNA损伤起到破坏肿瘤细胞的作用,其与188 Re诱导的电离辐射结合,可在不伤害周围正常组织的情况下特异性地抗肿瘤治疗,并增强其治疗效果。

3.2. 其他治疗

目前临床上对放射性肠炎的治疗有内镜下止血、高压氧治疗、肠外营养干预、保留灌肠及外科手术等措施。口服及灌肠药物常选用谷氨酰胺、康复新液、糖皮质激素、硫糖铝、美沙拉嗪,中药制剂等药物,修复、保护肠黏膜,减轻炎症反应。最新研究表明γ-氨基丁酸 [47] 、依达拉奉 [48] 等药物对于肠道放射性肠炎也有治疗作用,可减轻肠道氧化应激。

Liang等经荟萃分析后发现治疗放射性肠炎的多种口服药物中,中药汤剂的治疗效果最好 [49] 。黄连、黄芪、甘草和白头翁是放射性肠炎中医治疗中常用的草药,Hou等研究 [50] 明确黄芪多糖通过调控有丝分裂原激活蛋白激酶(AMPK)/核因子(NK)-κB)炎症信号通路的表达,减轻肠道炎症反应,对放射性肠炎有确切的治疗作用。临床经验表明,中医治疗对于放射性肠炎患者相关腹泻、腹痛,消化道出血等临床症状效果明显,但中草药成分复杂,相关临床实验研究数据较少,治疗机制研究不清,希望后续可加强相关研究。

纳米技术也运用于放射损伤的防护与治疗中,纳米辐射防护药物也为放射性肠炎的预防与治疗提供了更多的可能 [51] ,如Zhuo等人 [52] 研究用水凝胶负载两种纳米颗粒:多巴胺纳米颗粒(PDA-NPs)和间充质干细胞分泌的细胞外小囊泡(MSC-sEV),这种多功能水凝胶对ROS具有清除作用,可显著降低辐射造成的炎症及氧化损伤。

4. 总结与展望

随着放射治疗在肿瘤治疗中的应用日益增多,放射性肠炎患病率迅速升高,放射损伤引发的肠道出血、肠梗阻、肠瘘等并发症时常迁延不愈,复发难治,严重影响患者的生活质量。故我们还需更加深入地研究放射性肠炎病理机制,以期获得更多预防及治疗方法的启示。放疗后血管损伤相关研究已有很多,淋巴管与血管结构相似,多与血管伴行,但关于辐射后淋巴管损伤相关研究较少,辐射后淋巴管是否发生损伤,损伤为何种表现,有待我们进一步研究。中药及微生物治疗法是目前放射性肠炎治疗方法研究的热点,大量研究表明,一系列中医药治疗可能减轻结直肠组织纤维化、黏膜损伤及炎症反应。微生物及其衍生物对于减轻放疗损伤、增强放疗效率的作用也得到了大量的研究证实,这些无不说明中药及微生物治疗对于放射性肠炎治疗的无限潜力。
