The Intestinal Microbiota: Our Best Frenemy in Radiation-Induced Damages?

Abstract
High-dose ionizing radiation used during cancer radiotherapy is associated with the induction of hematopoietic, gastrointestinal, and cerebrovascular injuries. In a recent Science issue, Guo et al. demonstrated that the gut microbiota-and its associated metabolites-play a central role in protecting against high-dose radiation.
