While Semaglutide and Tirzepatide have become household names, a growing number of patients are also exploring metabolic peptides such as AOD-9604, MOTS-c, and Tesamorelin
Furthermore, as activated immune cells, melanophages may communicate and stimulate dermal T lymphocytes and secrete proinflammatory cytokines, potentially sustaining the chronic status of the hyperpigmented lesion [157, 158]
Sometimes, these substances are essentially bootleg versions of approved drugs, like semaglutide, but are procured for a fraction of their market price from dealers online
Excessive production of cytokines can be induced by inflammatory stimuli, such as LPS in macrophages, and it increases the immune response, which in turn results in inflammation [30]
