    Glossaryp38 MAPK (p38 MAP kinase)

    enzyme involved in cellular stress and inflammation responses

    p38 MAPK, or p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in cellular responses to stress and inflammation. It is part of a signaling pathway that helps cells react to various external stimuli, such as UV radiation, heat shock, and cytokines, by regulating the expression of specific genes involved in inflammation, cell differentiation, and apoptosis (programmed cell death). This pathway is significant in various biological processes and diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and inflammatory conditions.

      community Looks like a real cure to the root of baldness (DHT-induced senescence) was proven earlier this year

      A study that outlines the full model for androgenic alopecia (AGA) which links DHT to cellular senescence in dermal papilla cells, and suggests black chokeberry as a source of cyanidin 3-O-arabinoside polyphenol with potential anti-oxidant properties that could reverse this process. The post encourages reaching out to experts in anti-aging and longevity to research treatments involving the polyphenol.
