Radiotherapy-Related Disease Models

Creative Bioarray has pioneered the creation of an array of Radiotherapy-Related Disease Models, meticulously designed to facilitate the development of innovative drugs and therapeutic strategies aimed at combating the complications and toxicities inherent in the radiotherapy treatment of a broad spectrum of cancers. These models are instrumental in simulating the complex interplay between radiotherapy and the human physiological system, providing researchers with invaluable tools to explore and address the unmet needs in reducing the adverse effects of radiation treatment. By leveraging these sophisticated simulations, the pharmaceutical and medical research communities can advance their understanding and interventions, ultimately paving the way for safer and more effective cancer therapies.

Radiotherapy is employed in over 50% of cancer treatments, serving both curative and palliative functions. It utilizes ionizing radiation to precisely target and eradicate tumorous tissue. However, this treatment can also inflict damage on surrounding healthy tissue, resulting in toxic side effects. Radiation triggers a series of repair mechanisms in normal tissues, commencing with the DNA damage response, which encompasses programmed cell death pathways such as apoptosis, mitotic catastrophe, and cellular aging. Subsequently, a persistent cytokine cascade is activated, fostering inflammation and the abnormal accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) and collagen. These processes are primarily regulated by an imbalance of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) and tissue hypoxia.
