    GlossaryNeutrophil Infiltration

    movement of white blood cells into inflamed or infected tissue

    Neutrophil infiltration refers to the process where neutrophils, a type of white blood cell, move from the bloodstream into a tissue where there is inflammation or infection. This is part of the body's immune response to help fight off pathogens or repair damaged tissue. For a professional, it indicates an acute inflammatory response, often seen in conditions like infections, autoimmune diseases, or tissue injury.

      Diffuse hair loss and scalp biopsies

      community Diffuse hair loss and scalp biopsies

      in Research  692 upvotes 3 months ago
      Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
