research Data from Mobilizing Transit-Amplifying Cell-Derived Ectopic Progenitors Prevents Hair Loss from Chemotherapy or Radiation Therapy
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.
