Abstract：
Radiotherapy in patients with head and neck cancer fairly leads to xerostomia, profoundly affecting their quality of life. With limited effective preventive and therapeutic methods, attention has turned to exploring alternatives. This article outlines how intraglandular injection of mitochondria-boosting agents can serve as a potential strategy to reduce salivary acinar damage. This method can contribute to the thoughtful development of study protocols or medications to reduce radiation-induced salivary glands damage.
