Schematic representation of BH4 metabolism in radiosensitivity. Radiation oxidates BH4, which results in NOS uncoupling and augmented radiation-induced secondary ROS, ultimately leading to radiation-induced injuries. While GCH1-mediated BH4 metabolism attenuated radiation-induced ROS production to improve radiation damage.
