In large-scale radiation exposure events, the ability to triage potential victims by the received radiation dosage is crucial. This can be evaluated by radiation-induced biological changes. Radiation-responsive mRNA is a class of biomarkers that has been explored for dose-dependency with methods such as RT-qPCR.

- There is a risk of many people being exposed to harmful radiation, either by accident or on purpose, which could lead to serious health problems.
- Scientists are exploring new ways to measure how much radiation each person absorbs using samples from their body, like blood.
- By using computers and different types of data from experiments on mice, researchers found that combining this data can help better understand and predict the effects of radiation exposure.
In the search for biological markers after a large-scale exposure of the human population to radiation, gene expression is a sensitive endpoint easily translatable to in-field high throughput applications. Primarily, the ex-vivo irradiated healthy human blood model has been used to generate available gene expression datasets. This model has limitations i.
