    movement of immune cells into tissue due to injury or infection

    Inflammatory cell infiltration refers to the movement of immune cells, such as lymphocytes, macrophages, and neutrophils, into a tissue in response to injury or infection. This process is a hallmark of inflammation and can be observed in various conditions, including autoimmune diseases like alopecia areata, where the immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles, leading to hair loss.
