    Glossary Binding Proteins

    molecules that attach to specific substances for transport or regulation

    Binding proteins are molecules that attach to specific substances, such as hormones, nutrients, or DNA, to help transport, stabilize, or regulate them within the body. For example, in the context of hair biology, certain binding proteins might interact with hormones like androgens, influencing hair growth and potentially playing a role in conditions like alopecia.
