    GlossaryAlopecia Areata Mouse Model

    genetically modified mice used to study autoimmune hair loss

    The Alopecia Areata Mouse Model is a laboratory tool used to study alopecia areata, an autoimmune condition that causes hair loss. Researchers use genetically modified or specially bred mice that develop symptoms similar to human alopecia areata, allowing them to investigate the disease's mechanisms and test potential treatments.
