    GlossaryCellular Energy Homeostasis

    balance of energy production and use within cells

    Cellular energy homeostasis refers to the balance and regulation of energy production and consumption within a cell. This process ensures that cells have enough energy to perform essential functions like growth, repair, and maintenance. It involves various cellular pathways and molecules, such as ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which acts as the primary energy currency of the cell. Maintaining this balance is crucial for overall cellular health and function.

      Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
