Use of in vitro human keratinocyte models to study the effect of cooling on chemotherapy drug-induced cytotoxicity [PDF]
A highly distressing side-effect of cancer chemotherapy is chemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA). Scalp cooling remains the only treatment for CIA, yet there is no experimental evidence to support the cytoprotective capacity of cooling. We have established
