GlossaryCyclin-dependent kinase

enzyme that regulates cell cycle progression by partnering with cyclins

Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are a family of enzymes that play a crucial role in regulating the cell cycle, which is the process cells go through to divide and replicate. They work by partnering with proteins called cyclins to control the progression of cells through different phases of the cell cycle, ensuring that cells divide at the right time and maintain proper function.

community Creatine is the opposite of minoxidil !

in Research/Science 315 upvotes 9 months ago

Creatine may counteract minoxidil's hair growth effects by closing potassium ATP channels, potentially leading to hair loss in predisposed individuals. Despite anecdotal reports, there is no conclusive evidence linking creatine to hair loss.

community Compressed part of research of theory of androgenic/anabolitic balance. AGA h-responders analytic. Theory of physio-metabolitic method of anti AGA treatment

in Research 865 upvotes 1 year ago

The treatment for androgenetic alopecia involves using finasteride and minoxidil with intense exercise and cold exposure to boost metabolism and reduce androgenic effects, potentially leading to hair regrowth. This approach may activate biological pathways for improved hair and overall health.
