    neuropeptide involved in pain perception and inflammation

    Substance P (SP) is a neuropeptide that functions as a neurotransmitter and neuromodulator, playing a key role in pain perception by transmitting pain signals to the central nervous system. It is also involved in inflammatory processes and can influence hair growth by affecting the local immune response and blood flow in the scalp.

      community Apparently you can try PP405 right now!?

      in Research/Science  32 upvotes 8 months ago
      PP405 is likely a scam, with concerns about its legitimacy and safety, as it may cause unintended tissue growth. Users suggest sticking to known treatments like finasteride and minoxidil.

      Delayed release oral minoxidil is seen as a promising advancement for hair loss treatment, offering safer, higher doses and more consistent hair follicle stimulation compared to current options. However, it is not expected to replace finasteride or dutasteride, as it does not prevent androgenetic alopecia.
