Abstract:
Radiotherapy can cause varying degrees of damage to surrounding normal tissues while treating tumors. In recent years, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq), an emerging technology in modern biology, has gradually played a significant role in research on radiation-induced injuries. Researchers have delved into a variety of radiation-induced brain injuries, including radiation-induced brain injury (RIBI), cardiovascular injury, lung injury, intestinal injury, skin injury, and hematopoietic injury. Their studies provide novel perspectives for revealing the mechanisms behind radiation-induced injuries, assessing the degree of injury, and exploring potential therapies. This study reviews the advances in the application of scRNA-seq to research on radiation-induced injuries.
