Radiation Carcinogenesis at Low Doses [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 1972
An analysis of experimental findings indicates that the induction of a mammary neoplasm in the Sprague-Dawley rat is dependent on the action of radiation on more than one cell. Although a linear relation between incidence and x-ray dose might be consistent with available data, such a relation would be fortuitous and linear extrapolation to lower doses ...

Role of Commensal Microbes in the γ-Ray Irradiation-Induced Physiological Changes in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Ionizing radiation induces biological/physiological changes and affects commensal microbes, but few studies have examined the relationship between the physiological changes induced by irradiation and commensal microbes.

The Emerging Roles of Exosomes as EMT Regulators in Cancer

open access: yesCells, 2020
Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) causes epithelial cells to lose their polarity and adhesion property, and endows them with migratory and invasive properties to enable them to become mesenchymal stem cells.

Organ-Specific Effects of Low Dose Radiation Exposure: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
Ionizing radiation (IR) is a high-energy radiation whose biological effects depend on the irradiation doses. Low-dose radiation (LDR) is delivered during medical diagnoses or by an exposure to radioactive elements and has been linked to the occurrence of

Cancer Risk of Low Dose Ionizing Radiation

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2020
The radiation exposure of individuals has been on the rise due to an increased amount of radiation use, e.g., in medicine for diagnostic imaging and treatment procedures, industrial applications including military defense activities and nuclear power ...

Low-dose ionizing radiation alleviates Aβ42-induced cell death via regulating AKT and p38 pathways in Drosophila Alzheimer's disease models

open access: yesBiology Open, 2019
Ionizing radiation is widely used in medicine and is valuable in both the diagnosis and treatment of many diseases. However, its health effects are ambiguous.
