Radiotherapy toxicity

open access: yesNature Reviews Disease Primers, 2019
Radiotherapy is used in >50% of patients with cancer, both for curative and palliative purposes. Radiotherapy uses ionizing radiation to target and kill tumour tissue, but normal tissue can also be damaged, leading to toxicity. Modern and precise radiotherapy techniques, such as intensity-modulated radiotherapy, may prevent toxicity, but some patients ...

Ferroptosis, radiotherapy, and combination therapeutic strategies

open access: yesProtein & Cell, 2021
Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death driven by peroxidative damages of polyunsaturated-fatty-acid-containing phospholipids in cellular membranes, has recently been revealed to play an important role in radiotherapy-induced cell ...

Molecular mechanisms of chemo‐ and radiotherapy resistance and the potential implications for cancer treatment

open access: yesMedComm, 2021
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide. Surgery is the primary treatment approach for cancer, but the survival rate is very low due to the rapid progression of the disease and presence of local and distant metastasis at diagnosis.
