Researchers at Stockholm University conducted a study on phagocytosis, focusing on the effects of fractionated alpha and mixed beam radiation compared to acute exposure. The study found that fractionated radiation induced stronger pro-inflammatory effects and triggered phagocytosis in human microglial cells, potentially aiding in clearing amyloid beta associated with Alzheimer's disease. The research demonstrated transient pro-inflammatory responses without long-term alterations, highlighting the safety aspects of this approach.
