    localized environment surrounding cells or tissues

    The term "microenvironment" refers to the specific, localized environment surrounding cells or tissues, including factors like nutrients, oxygen levels, and signaling molecules. In the context of hair and alopecia, the hair follicle microenvironment includes the cells, extracellular matrix, and biochemical signals that influence hair growth and health. Understanding this microenvironment is crucial for developing treatments for hair loss conditions.
