Interaction between ionizing radiation and estrogen: what we are missing?

Following complexity as a new approach in science of 21st century biomonitoring of biological effects caused by ionizing radiation received an option of a new dimension. Insight in biological response of mammals to ionizing radiation exposure by integration of genome, non-genome and distant organ bystander effects will significantly change evaluation of health risk and preventive measures. Impact of estrogen on carcinogenesis caused by occupational or accidental exposure to ionizing radiation additionally enables biodosimetry to recognize vulnerable subpopulations according to gender and age. Estrogen, as a potent molecule involved in number of biological pathways during development and adulthood, shows close interaction with pathological processes launched by overexposure to ionizing radiation which should be included in future research and radiation protection.
