    specialized white blood cells crucial for immune response

    T cells, also known as T lymphocytes, are a type of white blood cell that plays a crucial role in the immune system. They help protect the body from infections and may also be involved in autoimmune conditions, where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's own tissues. T cells can be further categorized into different types, such as helper T cells, which assist other immune cells, and cytotoxic T cells, which directly kill infected or cancerous cells.

      SCUBE3, a protein linked to hair growth in moles, was discovered over 25 years ago and is being developed by Amplifica for potential hair loss treatment. Concerns exist about SCUBE3's association with cancer, as it is a protein that promotes cell growth, which could potentially trigger cancer development if used for hair growth therapy.
