GlossaryMalondialdehyde

byproduct of lipid peroxidation indicating oxidative stress in cells

Malondialdehyde (MDA) is a byproduct of lipid peroxidation, which occurs when free radicals attack lipids in cell membranes. It is often used as a biomarker to measure oxidative stress and cell damage in various biological tissues, including hair follicles. Elevated levels of MDA can indicate increased oxidative stress, which is linked to conditions like alopecia and other hair disorders.
