Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

DNA damage and chromosomal instability can promote sterile inflammatory responses in cells, similar to those induced by pathogen infection. Primary contributors to this phenomenon are cGAS-dependent and AIM2-dependent DNA-sensing mechanisms, as well as RIG-I-dependent, MDA5-dependent, and ZBP1-dependent RNA-sensing mechanisms. Work over the last decade has established that some or all of these pathways may also be activated by radiotherapy, potentially modulating the behavior of irradiated tumours. With an emphasis on tumor cells, we review here how innate immune signalling may become activated during radiotherapy, and how it may impact the behavior of irradiated cells, as well as how this might pattern the tumor microenvironment.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
