Alteration of Metal Elements in Radiation Injury: Radiation-Induced Copper Accumulation Aggravates Intestinal Damage
Ionizing radiation causes damage to a variety of tissues, especially radiation-sensitive tissues, such as the small intestine. Radiation-induced damage is caused primarily by increased oxidative stress in the body. Studies have shown that trace metal elements play an irreplaceable role in oxidative...
