Abstract

Macromolecular materials have been used in various fields, among which they have played a significant role in the design of radiation protection drugs so as to prevent the damages of radiation environment to the human body. Therefore, radioprotection drugs based on macromolecular materials are attracting more and more attention due to their obvious advantages, including tunable physicochemical properties and easy fabrication. Herein, we summarize the latest progress in the development of macromolecular radioprotection drugs and discuss their application prospects, which shows this promising tool's future perspectives in radioprotection and its potential and significant influence on maintaining the public security of the whole society.
