“…41 Ionizing radiation is known to induce oxidative stress through generation of ROS which is an imbalance in prooxidant, antioxidant status in the cell. 42 In the present study, γ-irradiation caused a noticeable increase in serum level of glucose concentration with a decrease in serum insulin level. These data agree with that reported in previous study of Kafafy,43 who reported a significant increase in blood glucose concentration after exposure to whole body γ-irradiation and this might be related to endocrine abnormalities induced by irradiation that promote the secretion of biologically active peptide which has relation with carbohydrate metabolism by increasing gluconeogenesis in liver .…”

“…The increased production of NO in the irradiated group is due to induction of NO synthase enzyme, which is considered to be absent under physiological conditions and induced by radiation. Superoxide anion (O 2-) can attack NO to form peroxynitrite (ONOO -) anion, which may oxidize many biological molecules including sulfhydryls (such as glutathione), iron sulfur centers and lipids [33].…”

“…Metabolic oxidative stress mediated by O 2 • -and H 2 O 2 significantly contributes to the differential susceptibility of cancer versus normal epithelial cells to glucosedeprivation or 2DG-induced cytotoxicity [8]. Bhosle et al [25] have documented that a decrease in mitochondrial potential is associated with cell death either by apoptosis or by necrosis. FA was also found to increase the radiosensitivity of HepG2 cells, and this was attributed to an enhanced rate of apoptosis [50].…”

“…Curcumin, a phenolic phytochemical, was shown to induce apoptosis in several human cancer cell lines but not in normal foreskin fibroblast cells [51,52]. Ellagic acid, a similar phenolic acid, enhanced the radiation-induced oxidative stress and cytotoxicity in HeLa cells [25].…”
