Summary Radiation, a universal component of Earth's environment, is categorized into non‐ionizing and ionizing forms. While non‐ionizing radiation is relatively harmless, ionizing radiation possesses sufficient energy to ionize atoms and disrupt DNA, leading to cell damage, mutation, cancer, and cell death.

The public health implications of the use of radioprotectors and radiomitigators in cumulative ionizing radiation exposure [PDF]
Cumulative exposure to natural and artificial ionizing radiation is a prevalent environmental health risk and is increasing. Ionizing radiation exposure may cause inheritable DNA mutations and increase cancer risks in exposed populations.

In cases of radiological accidents, especially for victims exposed to high-dose total-body irradiation (TBI), the administration of appropriate approved hematopoietic drugs is the most rapid medical treatment for preventing severe acute radiation syndrome, which is associated with a high mortality rate.

Radiation exposure can occur either intentionally or unintentionally and few drugs have been shown to be effective in mitigating or treating the damaging effects of radiation. Flt3 Ligand (Flt3L, fms‐like tyrosine kinase 3 ligand, CDX‐301) is a hematopoietic cytokine which stimulates the proliferation and differentiation of various

Radioprotective and radiomitigative effects of BP-C2, a novel lignin-derived polyphenolic composition with ammonium molybdate, in two mouse strains exposed to total body irradiation [PDF]
There remains an unmet medical need for radioprotective and mitigative agents. BP-C2 is a novel lignin-derived polyphenolic composition with ammonium molybdate, developed as radioprotector/radiomitigator.The present study evaluated BP-C2 for the mitigation of acute radiation syndrome (ARS).A total-body irradiation mouse model (TBI, 4.0-8.0 Gy) was used
