Did you mean Inflammatory Infiltrate?

GlossaryInflammatory Infiltrate

accumulation of immune cells in inflamed tissue

Inflammatory infiltrate refers to the accumulation of immune cells, such as lymphocytes, macrophages, and neutrophils, in a tissue where inflammation is occurring. This process is the body's response to injury, infection, or other harmful stimuli, and it can be observed under a microscope as a dense collection of these cells within the affected tissue.

community Fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution

in Research/Science 14 upvotes 2 years ago

A user has been experiencing hair loss for 4 years, with treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, and various supplements proving ineffective. They were diagnosed with fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution, a condition that may require a combination of anti-inflammatory and hair growth treatments.

community Why does the same hormone grow your beard and destroy your hairline?

in Research/Science 40 upvotes 2 months ago

DHT promotes beard growth but causes scalp hair loss due to inflammation and fibrosis. Treatments like finasteride and minoxidil help with hormonal signals and blood flow but don't address underlying inflammation.

community Is DHT actually the cause of male pattern hair loss or just a correlating factor? Why I think the research is more complicated than we're told and why I've been looking into GHK-Cu

in Research/Science 78 upvotes 2 months ago

DHT is not the only cause of male pattern hair loss; genetic sensitivity, inflammation, and fibrosis also contribute. GHK-Cu, a copper peptide, is being explored as an alternative treatment to finasteride and minoxidil, showing potential in improving follicle health.

community The MPB itch aka DHT itch is very real.

in Chat 9 upvotes 3 years ago

Hair loss itch is caused by DHT attacking follicles and stimulating nerves. Finasteride users who respond well don't experience this itch.

community Perifollicular Fibrosis and its role in androgenetic alopecia. Is Aminexil/Kopexil a must for anyone with AGA?

in Research/Science 4 upvotes 4 years ago

Aminexil/Kopexil may help reduce hair loss by addressing perifollicular fibrosis in androgenetic alopecia, but it lacks the extensive clinical backing of finasteride and minoxidil. Some users find it effective, but availability and cost are issues, especially in the US where it's not FDA-approved.
