A recent study from Stanford University School of Medicine explores the role of ferroptosis in radiation-induced soft tissue injury. The research highlights the complications caused by ionizing radiation in cancer therapy, including damage to DNA and the generation of reactive oxygen species. While cancer cells are more susceptible to radiation damage, healthy cells in the irradiated area also suffer. The study aims to summarize the pathways involved in radiation-related ferroptosis, findings in different organs, and potential drugs that target ferroptosis to mitigate its harmful effects.
