Molecular determinants of radiosensitivity in normal and tumor tissue: A bioinformatic approach.

Abstract excerpt

Although radiation therapy is a treatment of choice for cancer, a high percentage of patients develop adverse effects in normal tissue following radiotherapy, mainly, due to genetic factors. Notably, although it is established that a lower dose of ionizing radiation can minimize the tumor cell population in radiosensitive cancer patients, the sensitivity of tumor cells to radiation has not gained enough...
