REV-002 / Proposed mechanism

Ion-channel disruption, oxidative stress and DNA damage

Panagopoulos et al. · 2021 · International journal of oncology

What this paper brings together

A biophysical and biological synthesis connecting forced oscillation of ions, voltage-gated channels, oxidative stress and DNA damage.

The authors’ synthesis or proposal

Develops an ion forced-oscillation model: polarized low-frequency components may disturb voltage-gated ion channels, change intracellular ions and promote reactive oxygen species and DNA damage.

Reading the connections carefully

Mechanistic synthesis and theoretical modelling; its full causal chain is not established across exposure types or validated as a quantitative predictor of human disease.
