Abstrakt: The DNA damage response (DDR) is a complex and highly regulated cellular process that detects and repairs DNA damage. The integrity of the DNA molecule is crucial for the proper functioning and survival of cells, as DNA damage can lead to mutations, genomic instability, and various diseases, including cancer. The DDR safeguards the genome by coordinating a series of signaling events and repair mechanisms to maintain genomic stability and prevent the propagation of damaged DNA to daughter cells. The study of an ion channels in the context of DDR is a promising avenue in biomedical research. Lately, it has been reported that the movement of ions through channels plays a crucial role in various physiological processes, including nerve signaling, muscle contraction, cell signaling, and maintaining cell membrane potential. Knowledge regarding the involvement of ion channels in the DDR could support refinement of our approach to several pathologies, mainly cancer, and perhaps lead to innovative therapies. In this review, we focused on the ion channel's possible role in the DDR. We present an analysis of the involvement of ion channels in DDR, their role in DNA repair mechanisms, and cellular outcomes. By addressing these areas, we aim to provide a comprehensive perspective on ion channels in the DDR and potentially guide future research in this field. It is worth noting that the interplay between ion channels and the cellular DDR is complex and multifaceted. More research is needed to fully understand the underlying mechanisms and potential therapeutic implications of these interactions.
