    Glossary Ligands

    molecules that bind to specific sites on proteins

    Ligands are molecules that bind to specific sites on a target protein, often a receptor, to form a complex. This binding can trigger various biological responses, such as activating or inhibiting a receptor's function. In the context of hair biology, ligands can interact with receptors on hair follicle cells to influence hair growth and health.
