    GlossaryApoptotic Cells

    cells undergoing controlled self-destruction to maintain tissue health

    Apoptotic cells are cells that are undergoing apoptosis, which is a form of programmed cell death. This process is a natural and controlled way for the body to remove damaged, unnecessary, or potentially harmful cells without causing inflammation. Apoptosis is crucial for maintaining healthy tissue function and development, and its dysregulation can lead to diseases such as cancer or autoimmune disorders.

      The conversation discusses Fevipiprant, an asthma drug that may block CRTH2 and potentially stop male pattern baldness (MPB) without inhibiting DHT. It also mentions the use of finasteride and dutasteride for hair loss.

      community Looks like a real cure to the root of baldness (DHT-induced senescence) was proven earlier this year

      A study that outlines the full model for androgenic alopecia (AGA) which links DHT to cellular senescence in dermal papilla cells, and suggests black chokeberry as a source of cyanidin 3-O-arabinoside polyphenol with potential anti-oxidant properties that could reverse this process. The post encourages reaching out to experts in anti-aging and longevity to research treatments involving the polyphenol.

      community The MPB itch aka DHT itch is very real.

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