    Glossary Cytokine Expression

    process where cells produce proteins to regulate immune responses

    Cytokine expression refers to the process by which cells produce and release cytokines, which are small proteins that act as messengers to regulate immune responses and inflammation. In the context of hair and alopecia, abnormal cytokine expression can lead to inflammation around hair follicles, potentially contributing to hair loss.
