To enhance the treatment of tumors that are resistant to radio- and chemotherapy while minimizing the side effects of radiochemotherapy, researchers are continuously seeking new active compounds for use in combination with radiotherapy. Therefore, the aim of our study was to examine the cytotoxic and radiosensitizing effects of an extract from St. John's Wort (, referred to as HP01, on human epithelial tumor cells in vitro.

Radiation-induced skin toxicity, resulting from ionizing or nonionizing radiation, is a common skin disorder. However, the underlying relationship between skin microbiota and radiation-induced skin toxicity remains largely unexplored. Herein, we uncover the microbiota-skin interaction based on a genome-wide association study (GWAS) featuring 150 skin microbiota and three types of skin microenvironment.

Background: Ionizing radiation (IR) is a well-known inducer of cellular senescence and the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). SASP factors play dual roles in cancer, either promoting or inhibiting its development. This study investigates IR-induced SASP factors specifically secreted by renal cortical epithelial (RCE) cells and their role in promoting renal cell carcinoma (RCC) progression.

Water treatment technologies have received great attention recently, as water is the most important nutritional element, and animals consume it daily in larger quantities than those of food. The ideal water treatment affects the chemical composition and physical properties of water, having a significant positive impact on the animal's physiology, productivity, and welfare. Studies conducted on water ionization devices for broiler chickens remain limited; therefore, this study was planned to investigate the effect of ionized drinking water on the productive performance, physiological status, and carcass characteristics of broiler chicks.

Energy delivered at different wavelengths causes different types of damage to DNA. PC-3, FaDu, 4T1 and B16-F10 cells were irradiated with different wavelengths of ultraviolet light (UVA/UVC) and ionizing radiation (X-ray). Furthermore, different photosensitizers (ortho-iodo-Hoechst33258/psoralen/trioxsalen) were tested for their amplifying effect.
