    GlossaryCell Cycle Arrest

    process that halts cell division to repair damage or stress

    Cell cycle arrest is a mechanism that stops the progression of the cell cycle, preventing cells from dividing. This can occur in response to DNA damage, lack of nutrients, or other stress signals, allowing the cell time to repair itself or, if the damage is too severe, to initiate programmed cell death (apoptosis). This process is crucial for maintaining genetic stability and preventing the proliferation of damaged cells, which can lead to diseases like cancer.

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

      in Research/Science  733 upvotes 2 years ago
      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.

      in Research/Science  28 upvotes 1 year ago
      TDM-105795 showed promising hair growth results, with higher efficacy than placebo and minimal side effects. It activates dormant hair follicle stem cells and may maintain gains without immediate loss, unlike minoxidil.

      community Fats on your Head to Stop Hair Loss?

      in Research/Science  139 upvotes 1 year ago
      The conversation discusses the potential of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, like oleic and linoleic acid, as an additional treatment for hair loss, which may inhibit the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT and promote hair growth. Users humorously suggest using oils topically and discuss other hair loss treatments, but the main focus is on the science behind fatty acids and their role in hair health.
