Background: In the context of modern oncology, radiogenic elements have emerged as pivotal tools for targeted cancer therapies. Elements like Iodine-131 and Yttrium-90 offer unique radiological properties that allow precise treatment delivery. This article explores their growing importance and potential in reshaping the landscape of cancer therapy.

Medulloblastoma (MB) is a common primary brain cancer in children. The sonic hedgehog (SHH) pathway is indispensable for the normal development of the cerebellum, and MB is often caused by persistent SHH activation owing to mutations in pathway components. Patched1 () is the primary receptor for the SHH ligand and a negative regulator of the SHH signal transduction pathway.

With the advancements in conventional treatment modalities such as radiation, chemotherapy, and surgery, as well as the emergence of immunotherapy, the overall cure rate for solid tumor malignancies has experienced a significant increase. However, it is unfortunate that exposure to cancer treatments can have detrimental effects on the function of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, disturbing bone metabolic homeostasis in patients, as well as causing damage to bone marrow cells and other bone tissues. Consequently, certain tumor treatment options may pose a risk for subsequent bone diseases.

Reducing side effects in non-cancerous tissue is a key aim of modern radiotherapy. Here, we assessed whether the use of the antioxidants hydroxytyrosol (HT) and thioredoxin-mimetic peptide CB3 (TMP) attenuated radiation-induced normal tissue toxicity in vitro. We used primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and human epidermal keratinocytes (HaCaT) as normal tissue models.

Introduction: Medulloblastoma is a central nerves tumor that often occurs in pediatrics. The main radiotherapy technique for this tumor type is craniospinal irradiation (CSI), through which the whole brain and spinal cord are exposed to radiation. Due to the immaturity of healthy organs in pediatrics, radiogenic side effects such as second cancer are more severe.
