    GlossaryCXCL1

    small protein that attracts white blood cells to inflammation

    CXCL1, also known as Chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 1 or GROα, is a small protein involved in the immune response. It acts as a signaling molecule that attracts white blood cells to sites of inflammation or injury, playing a crucial role in wound healing and immune defense. In the context of hair biology, CXCL1 can influence hair follicle cycling and may be involved in conditions like alopecia, where hair loss occurs.
