    cells build proteins from amino acids using DNA instructions

    Protein synthesis is the process by which cells build proteins, which are essential for various functions in the body. It involves two main steps: transcription, where the DNA code is copied into messenger RNA (mRNA), and translation, where the mRNA is read by ribosomes to assemble amino acids into a specific protein. This process is crucial for cell growth, repair, and overall function.

      community Verteporfin and Microneedling

      in Treatments 5 months ago
      Clinical studies by Dr. Barghouthi and Dr. Bloxham indicate that Verteporfin, when used with FUE and FUT hair transplantation methods, shows promise in hair follicle regeneration and minimal scarring due to its ability to inhibit Yes-associated protein (YAP). Microneedling at depths of 3-3.5mm, combined with Verteporfin, could potentially reactivate dormant follicles, although the optimal dosage and application method are still under investigation. Concerns remain about the DHT sensitivity of regenerated follicles, highlighting the need for further research to optimize trauma levels and Verteporfin concentrations to achieve effective and scar-free hair regeneration.
