Quantitative modeling of responses to chronic ionizing radiation exposure using targeted and non-targeted effects
The biological effects of chronic ionizing radiation exposure can be difficult to study, but important to understand in order to protect the health of occupationally-exposed persons and victims of radiological accidents or malicious events. They include targeted effects (TE) caused by ionizations within/close to nuclear DNA, and non-targeted effects (NTE) caused by damage to other cell structur...
متن کاملNon-targeted effects induced by ionizing radiation: mechanisms and potential impact on radiation induced health effects.
Not-targeted effects represent a paradigm shift from the "DNA centric" view that ionizing radiation only elicits biological effects and subsequent health consequences as a result of an energy deposition event in the cell nucleus. While this is likely true at higher radiation doses (>1 Gy), at low doses (<100 mGy) non-targeted effects associated with radiation exposure might play a significant r...
متن کاملRadiation responses of stem cells: targeted and non-targeted effects.
Stem cells are fundamental to the development of any tissue or organism via their ability to self-renew, which is aided by their unlimited proliferative capacity and their ability to produce fully differentiated offspring, often from multiple lineages. Stems cells are long lived and have the potential to accumulate mutations, including in response to radiation exposure. It is thought that stem ...
متن کاملNon-targeted biological effects of ionising radiation
The universality of the target theory of radiation-induced effects is challenged by observations on non-targeted effects such as bystander effects and genomic instability. Essential features of non-targeted effects are that they do not require direct nuclear exposure by radiation and they are particularly significant at low doses. This new evidence suggests a need for a new paradigm in radiatio...
متن کاملDeath receptor pathways mediate targeted and non-targeted effects of ionizing radiations in breast cancer cells
Delayed cell death by mitotic catastrophe is a frequent mode of solid tumor cell death after gamma-irradiation, a widely used treatment of cancer. Whereas the mechanisms that underlie the early gamma-irradiation-induced cell death are well documented, those that drive the delayed cell death are largely unknown. Here we show that the Fas, tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (...
