Abstract
Redox biology plays an important role in cancer progression and therapy resistance. Tumor cells maintain elevated levels of reactive oxygen species to support proliferation while upregulating antioxidant defences to avoid oxidative cell death. Radiotherapy, a standard treatment for over half of all cancer patients, relies on the generation of reactive oxygen species and adequate oxygen availability for efficacy. However, hypoxic tumor microenvironments and enhanced antioxidant systems contribute significantly to radioresistance. This redox imbalance, which is characteristic of tumor cells, presents a therapeutic opportunity where modifying redox biology may sensitise tumors to radiation and promote cell death. In this review, we examine how redox signalling supports tumor survival and highlight emerging clinical strategies that target redox pathways to overcome resistance and improve radiotherapy outcomes.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
