GlossaryApoptosis Regulator

protein controlling programmed cell death in cells

An apoptosis regulator, also known as a cell death regulator, is a protein that controls the process of apoptosis, which is the programmed death of cells. This process is crucial for maintaining healthy tissue by eliminating damaged or unnecessary cells. Dysregulation of apoptosis can lead to diseases such as cancer, where cells avoid death and proliferate uncontrollably, or degenerative diseases, where excessive cell death occurs.

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 I hope ET-02 or PP405 will be released in the next 4-5 years

in Product 15 upvotes 1 year ago

PP405 is a potential hair loss treatment that may work by blocking signals that cause hair cells to stop growing, requiring daily application for effectiveness. It could serve as an alternative to minoxidil and finasteride, but it is not yet available on the market and may take several years to be released.

community Topical finasteride now the safest possible path?

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 84 upvotes 2 years ago

Topical finasteride is considered a safer option for hair regrowth with fewer systemic side effects compared to oral finasteride. Some users report similar efficacy and side effects between topical and oral treatments, while others prefer topical due to reduced systemic exposure.
