“…Radiosensitizers escalate radiation damage in tumor cells via various mechanisms such as increase in initial DNA damage, interfere or inhibit DNA damage repair, cell cycle control, cell survival or cell death pathways (Girdhani et al, 2005;Javvadi et al, 2008;Shin et al, 2008;Katz et al, 2009;Verheij et al, 2010). Radioprotectors are compounds that diminish damaging effects of radiation to normal cells mostly via their ability to scavenge free radicals generated by ionizing radiation (Maurya et al,1 has been of interest of investigators for decades, only very few compounds have been approved for clinical application because of non-specificity and unacceptable toxicity (Katz et al, 2009;Habr-Gama et al, 2010;Kim et al, 2011). It has been proposed that the use of naturally occurring compounds derived from herbal medicinal plants as radiomodulators is less toxic within certain doses .…”
