This study found that scalp cryotherapy significantly protected against hair loss during chemotherapy and for two months after, with various factors influencing hair regrowth in breast cancer patients.

This research reports that after genotoxic stress from ionizing radiation or chemotherapy, hair follicles can utilize progenitor cells from transit-amplifying compartments, not quiescent stem cells, for repair, suggesting a potential therapeutic approach to prevent therapy-induced hair loss by activating these progenitors.

In this study, various cellular responses and signaling pathways were examined in hair follicles after exposure to ionizing radiation, including the effects of Wnt3a treatment, with findings noted in apoptosis, DNA damage, and differentiation processes.

Results are not reported in this study, which investigated the effects of radiation on hair follicles and evaluated various cellular responses and signaling pathways, particularly focusing on WNT signaling and the impact of Wnt3a treatment.

This communication reports previously unreported side effects, severe bullous dermatosis and onycholysis, in three patients undergoing high-dose methotrexate and leucovorin calcium therapy, impacting their chemotherapy schedules.
