Radiation-Induced Tissue Regeneration: Pathways, Mechanisms, and Therapeutic Potential.

This article explores the paradoxic nature of radiation as both a destructive and regenerative force. The article examines the interplay of signaling pathways, immune modulation, and stem cells in tissue regeneration post radiation, emphasizing the roles of key pathways like Wnt, Hedgehog, Notch, and p53. It highlights advancements in low-dose radiation therapy, extracellular vesicles, and stem cell-based interventions. Furthermore, the immune system's dual role in repair and damage is dissected, along with technologies such as artificial intelligence and bioengineered scaffolds that enhance therapeutic outcomes. The article offers a roadmap for integrating therapeutic innovation with regenerative medicine to improve patient outcomes.
