Overall, we have considerably shortened our discussion of suggested therapeutics, as these sections were the most speculative
While GHK-Cu is not a growth hormone secretagogue, it exerts potent localised effects relevant to both hair and skin: Promotion of angiogenesis , increasing capillary density around follicles Stimulation of stem cell migration and differentiation Inhibition of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-) , a cytokine associated with follicular miniaturisation Enhancement of collagen and elastin synthesis , improving scalp elasticity and barrier function Topical GHK-Cu formulations, available through Dn Research in research-grade purity, can be incorporated into routine scalp applications to directly support the hair follicle microenvironment
The development of type 2 diabetes is accompanied by decreased immune function, the underlying mechanisms of which are unclear
L-carnitine as an immunomodulator through anti-inflammatory effects Lonza hypothesized that L-carnitine tartrate supplementation may impact ACE2 expression and, consequently, its attachment to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein through lowering inflammation
