Macrophages prime KRT14+ ductal progenitor cells to drive regeneration in the salivary gland following radiation-induced injury

2026-08-25

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>The salivary glands often become damaged in individuals receiving radiotherapy for head and neck cancer, resulting in chronic dry mouth. This has a detrimental effect on patient health and quality of life, for which there is no cure. Regeneration of the injured tissue holds therapeutic promise. Keratin-14 positive (KRT14+) epithelial progenitor cells are responsible for the replenishmen...
