    GlossaryCell Survival

    ability of cells to resist stress and avoid death

    Cell survival refers to the ability of cells to resist stress and avoid death, maintaining their function and integrity over time. This process is crucial for tissue health and involves various mechanisms, such as DNA repair, antioxidant defenses, and signaling pathways that prevent apoptosis (programmed cell death). In the context of hair and alopecia, promoting cell survival in hair follicles can help prevent hair loss and support hair growth.
