    GlossaryExtracellular Matrix Proteins (matrix proteins)

    provide structural and biochemical support to surrounding cells

    Extracellular Matrix Proteins (ECM Proteins) are a group of molecules secreted by cells that provide structural and biochemical support to the surrounding cells. These proteins, such as collagen, elastin, and fibronectin, form a complex network that helps maintain tissue integrity, facilitates cell communication, and plays a crucial role in wound healing and tissue regeneration.

      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.
