    GlossaryCXCR3

    receptor on immune cells guiding them to inflammation sites

    CXCR3 is a receptor found on the surface of certain immune cells, such as T cells. It plays a crucial role in directing these cells to sites of inflammation or injury by binding to specific signaling molecules called chemokines. This receptor is important in various immune responses and has been implicated in conditions like autoimmune diseases and alopecia, where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's own tissues.
