    GlossaryApoptosis

    natural process where cells intentionally die for organism health

    Apoptosis, also known as programmed cell death, is a natural process by which cells intentionally die to help maintain the health and balance of an organism. This process is crucial for development, immune function, and removing damaged or potentially harmful cells. In the context of hair, apoptosis can influence hair follicle cycling and contribute to conditions like alopecia if dysregulated.
