    November 2024 in “ International Journal of Molecular Sciences ”
    Baruch Kaplan, Rebecca von Dannecker, Jack L. Arbiser
    Studysummary In this review, the authors discuss how hair may protect against scalp skin cancer by enabling IL-17-biased immunosurveillance, while hair loss could permit tumor development by reducing this immune protection.
