March 2024 in “Preprints.org” In a study conducted on mice, researchers observed that exposure to ionizing radiation led to significant metabolic imbalances, including dyslipidemia and disruptions in amino acid metabolism, with activated protein C providing partial protection by normalizing certain plasma metabolites and lipids.
January 2017 in “NASA Technical Reports Server (NASA)” This study suggests that radiation-induced changes in FGF18 gene expression in the skin may predict later reductions in bone mass, as observed in irradiated mice.

January 2014 in “PLOS ONE” This study demonstrated that metabolomics could identify persistent biomarkers distinguishing between heavy ion and γ radiation exposures, offering a potential tool for assessing long-term radiation risk for intestinal pathologies.
January 2010 in “Zhongguo xiandai yixue/Zhongguo xiandai yixue zazhi” In this study, increased expression of TGF-β1 and TNF-α was observed in mice after lung irradiation, suggesting these cytokines play a role in radiation-induced pulmonary injury.
