GlossaryBax

protein that regulates cell death through apoptosis

Bax is a protein that plays a crucial role in regulating cell death, specifically through a process called apoptosis. In the context of hair and alopecia, Bax can influence the health of hair follicles by promoting the programmed death of cells, which can contribute to hair loss if overactive. For professionals, Bax is known to interact with other proteins in the Bcl-2 family to either promote or inhibit apoptosis, making it a key target for research in treatments for conditions involving unwanted cell death.

A user has been experiencing hair loss since 2013 and has tried various treatments including finasteride, minoxidil, fluridil, pantostin, stemoxydine, microneedling, and Nizoral. They reported improvement after adding antiandrogens and other treatments in July of the previous year but stopped finasteride due to erectile dysfunction.
