Salivary glands regenerate after radiation injury through SOX2‐mediated secretory cell replacement
Abstract Salivary gland acinar cells are routinely destroyed during radiation treatment for head and neck cancer that results in a lifetime of hyposalivation and co‐morbidities. A potential regenerative strategy for replacing injured tissue is the reactivation of endogenous stem cells by targeted th...
