High-Z-based nanomaterials offer excellent radio-enhancement properties while natural products provide radioprotection. Modulation of the radiotherapeutic index via applying nanomaterials is feasible for effective treatment however, the scenario changes when simultaneous protection of non-cancerous cells is required. Here, we report the modulatory radiotherapeutic effect of curcumin conjugated gold nanoparticles in a single nanoformulation to pave the long-awaited hope of a single combination-based, cell-selective radio enhancer, and protectant for cancer radiotherapy. We have validated the effective radiation dose along with the combination of the radio-nanomodulator by a reverse experimentation statistical model. The concept was supported by different sets of experiments, like quantification of ROS generation, cell cycle monitoring, mitochondrial membrane potential measurement, etc. along with gene expression study, and predictive modeling of molecular pathways of the killing mechanism. In conclusion, the nanoconjugate showed a promise to become a candidate for the pH-dependent cell-specific radio-modulator.  \nKeywords Gold-curcumin nanoparticles · Metal-phytodrug nanoconjugates · Ionizing radiation · Radiosensitization · Radioprotection · Oxidative stress · Programmed cell death  \n1 Introduction  \nRadiation therapy is the foremost chosen method for the treatment of locally advanced cancers. While radiation therapy contributes to severe deleterious effects on neighboring non-cancerous cells. Radiation therapy also potentially influences immune suppression, and bone marrow degradation [1]. To minimize the deleterious effects of radiation, radioligand therapy (RLT) or radionuclide therapy is a better choice over conventional radiation treatment [2] . Radionuclide therapy delivers radionuclides close to the site hence significantly lowering the adverse effect of radiation damage to normal local tissues [3] . During RLT, the healthy local tissues around the tumor tend to receive a prolonged radiation  \nPriyaYadav and Arghya Bandyopadhyay contributed equally.  \nSupplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at [https://doi.org/10.1186/s11671-024-](https://doi.org/10.1186/s11671-024-)[ ](https://doi.org/10.1186/s11671-024-)[04104-7](04104-7.)[.](04104-7.)  \n* Arghya Bandyopadhyay, [arghya.micro@gmail.com](arghya.micro@gmail.com); * Keka Sarkar, [keka@klyuniv.ac.in |](keka@klyuniv.ac.in |1Department of Microbiology)[1](keka@klyuniv.ac.in |1Department of Microbiology)[Department of Microbiology](keka@klyuniv.ac.in |1Department of Microbiology), University of Kalyani, Kalyani, West Bengal 741235, India. 2Department of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Annamalai University, Annamalai Nagar, Tamil Nadu 608002, India. 3Department of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, University of Kalyani, Kalyani, West Bengal 741235, India.  \nDiscover Nano  \n(2024) 19:153  \n| [https://doi.org/10.1186/s11671-024-04104-7](https://doi.org/10.1186/s11671-024-04104-7)  \ndose due to the presence of radionuclides within the body. Unfortunately, traditional radiation therapy as well as RLT bombards the system with high-energy radiation doses [4, 5]. Alternatively, Auger therapy relies on low-energy electrons for the treatment of cancer where the presence of a metal within the cell is capable of releasing Auger electrons upon being charged by external radiation.
