Title: Metabolomics in Radiation-Induced Biological Dosimetry: A Mini-Review and a Polyamine Study. Author: Roh C. Journal: Biomolecules; 2018 May 29; 8(2):. PubMed ID: 29844258. Abstract: In this study, we elucidate that polyamine metabolite is a powerful biomarker to study post-radiation changes. Metabolomics in radiation biodosimetry, the application of a metabolomics analysis to the field of radiobiology, promises to increase the understanding of biological responses by ionizing radiation (IR). Radiation exposure triggers a complex network of molecular and cellular responses that impacts metabolic processes and alters the levels of metabolites. Such metabolites have potential as biomarkers for radiation dosimetry. Among metabolites, polyamine is one of many potential biomarkers to estimate radiation response. In addition, this review provides an opportunity for the understanding of a radiation metabolomics in biodosimetry and a polyamine case study.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
