Protective effect of pycnogenol against gamma radiation-induced lung injury in rat: DNA damage, lipid peroxidation, antioxidant levels, and histopathological changes

Conclusion: We demonstrate that 300 mg/kg of pycnogenol might provide significant protection against deleterious effects from whole-body ionizing radiation on the lung tissue. P300+ γ-ray group was significantly reduced radiation-induced lung injury and was possible to observe significantly preservation.
