cellular response to X-ray
Definition
Target type: biologicalprocess
Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of X-ray radiation. An X-ray is a form of electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength in the range of 10 nanometers to 100 picometers (corresponding to frequencies in the range 30 PHz to 3 EHz). [GOC:mah]
Cellular response to X-ray involves a complex series of events that begin with the absorption of X-ray energy by cellular components, primarily DNA. This absorption can lead to a variety of damages, including single- and double-strand breaks, base modifications, and crosslinking. These damages activate various signaling pathways, leading to the activation of DNA repair mechanisms, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis.
The initial response to X-ray damage involves the recognition of DNA lesions by sensor proteins. These proteins recruit effector proteins, such as kinases and phosphatases, which initiate a cascade of signaling events. These events lead to the activation of DNA repair pathways, including base excision repair (BER), nucleotide excision repair (NER), and homologous recombination (HR). These repair pathways aim to restore the integrity of the damaged DNA.
If the damage is too severe or the repair mechanisms are overwhelmed, cells may activate cell cycle checkpoints to prevent the replication of damaged DNA. This arrest allows time for repair or triggers apoptosis if repair is impossible. Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, removes damaged cells from the organism, preventing the propagation of mutations that can lead to cancer.
In addition to DNA damage, X-rays can also cause damage to other cellular components, such as proteins and lipids. These damages can disrupt cellular processes and contribute to the overall cellular response.
Overall, cellular response to X-ray is a multifaceted process involving DNA damage, signaling pathways, DNA repair mechanisms, cell cycle checkpoints, and apoptosis. The outcome of this response depends on the severity of the damage and the efficiency of cellular repair mechanisms. Understanding this process is essential for developing effective strategies to mitigate the negative effects of X-ray exposure.'
