    GlossaryCytokine Production

    process where cells create signaling proteins for immune responses

    Cytokine production refers to the process by which cells, particularly immune cells, produce and release cytokines. Cytokines are small proteins that act as signaling molecules, helping to regulate immune responses, inflammation, and cell communication. This process is crucial for coordinating the body's defense mechanisms against infections and diseases, including conditions like alopecia, where immune system dysregulation can affect hair follicles.
