    GlossaryAdenosine Triphosphate (ATP)

    molecule that provides energy for cellular processes

    Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) is a molecule that serves as the primary energy carrier in cells. It stores and transports chemical energy within cells, enabling various biological processes such as muscle contraction, nerve impulse propagation, and chemical synthesis. ATP is often referred to as the "energy currency" of the cell because it provides the energy needed for many cellular functions.

      community Can liver problems be associated with response to the oral minoxidil?

      in Research  147 upvotes 2 weeks ago
      Liver problems may reduce the effectiveness of oral minoxidil due to impaired SULT1A1 enzyme activity, which is crucial for converting minoxidil to its active form. This reduction in enzyme function can significantly decrease the drug's effectiveness in promoting hair growth.
