    Glossary Immune Privilege Collapse

    breakdown of immune protection in areas like hair follicles

    Immune Privilege Collapse refers to the breakdown of a body's natural protection in certain areas, like the eyes or hair follicles, where the immune system usually doesn't attack. When this collapse happens, the immune system mistakenly targets these areas, leading to conditions like alopecia, where hair falls out because the immune system attacks hair follicles.
