GlossaryAdipogenic Differentiation

process where precursor cells become mature fat cells

Adipogenic differentiation, also known as adipocyte differentiation, is the process by which preadipocytes (precursor cells) develop into mature adipocytes (fat cells). This process involves a series of genetic and biochemical changes that enable the cells to store fat and perform functions related to energy storage and metabolism. Understanding adipogenic differentiation is crucial for research into obesity, metabolic disorders, and related conditions.

community The Big Fat Layer / Remedies: Cetirizine

in Treatment 12 upvotes 3 years ago

Treating hair loss with various remedies, such as Cetirizine and the Big3 complex (minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841), which have properties like adipogenic, anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory. References to research studies are also included.

community The Big Fat Layer II

in Research/Science 26 upvotes 4 years ago

Hair loss treatment should target dermal white adipose tissue (DWAT) to restore hair follicles. Potential remedies include tocopherol (vitamin E), botox, rosiglitazone, niacin, kojyl cinnamate esters, and ADP355.

community i hate how much i’m stressing about hair loss

in Chat 78 upvotes 1 year ago

Someone who is starting to experience hair loss and is considering multiple treatments, such as minoxidil, finasteride, dutasteride, and a hair transplant, to manage it. Replies provide advice on how to approach these treatments safely and effectively.

community Stop expecting results in 2 months!

in Treatment 125 upvotes 8 months ago

People discussing hair loss treatments emphasize the need for patience, as results from using finasteride and minoxidil can take 8-12 months or longer. Some users report early signs of improvement, while others experience continued shedding or slower progress.
