Fractionated ionising radiation affects cellular functions, and gene expression associated to subpopulation of F11 dorsal root ganglia neurons without inducing oxidative stress

William Timbury, Sean M. Gettings, Raymond Shek…·Nora Bourbia

The paper investigates how fractionated ionising radiation affects DRG neurons, finding increased senescence and gene expression changes in mechanoreceptor fibres without inducing oxidative stress.

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) micro- and nanoplastic particles affect the mitochondrial efficiency of human brain vascular pericytes without inducing oxidative stress

Sean M. Gettings, William Timbury, Anna Dmochowska…·Nora Bourbia

This study investigates the effects of PET micro- and nanoplastics on human brain vascular pericytes, finding no oxidative stress but increased mitochondrial respiration and suggesting a potential mitohormesis response.
