GlossaryApoptotic Cells (Programmed Cell Death Cells)

cells undergoing controlled self-destruction to maintain tissue health

Apoptotic cells are cells that are undergoing apoptosis, which is a form of programmed cell death. This process is a natural and controlled way for the body to remove damaged, unnecessary, or potentially harmful cells without causing inflammation. Apoptosis is crucial for maintaining healthy tissue function and development, and its dysregulation can lead to diseases such as cancer or autoimmune disorders.

community Fats on your Head to Stop Hair Loss?

in Research/Science 141 upvotes 9 months ago

The conversation discusses the potential of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, like oleic and linoleic acid, as an additional treatment for hair loss, which may inhibit the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT and promote hair growth. Users humorously suggest using oils topically and discuss other hair loss treatments, but the main focus is on the science behind fatty acids and their role in hair health.

community The Real Cause Of Androgenetic Alopecia

in Research/Science 674 upvotes 1 month ago

Androgenetic alopecia is caused by DHT affecting hair growth. Finasteride and minoxidil are used to manage hair loss by blocking DHT and promoting hair growth.

community HairClone developing cell replacement treatments for Hair Loss

6 upvotes 5 years ago

HairClone is developing cell replacement treatments to rejuvenate and generate hair follicles, and has launched a crowdfunding campaign. A user expressed skepticism about the need for crowdfunding.

community My Theory Regarding a Cause and Cure for Androgenetic Alopecia

in Treatment 98 upvotes 4 years ago

Hair loss theory suggests imbalance between Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) and Androgen Receptor (AR) activation. Proposed treatment includes upregulating VDR, downregulating AR, and improving mitochondrial health.

community Why I really believe the tension theory is the cause of MPB

in Research/Science 70 upvotes 3 years ago

The conversation discusses the tension theory as a cause of male pattern baldness (MPB), suggesting that scalp tension and reduced subcutaneous fat layer contribute to hair loss. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, microneedling, scalp massages, and Botox.
