The term impaired sensitivity to B12 more aptly captures this condition than functional B12 deficiency, encompassing a broader portrayal of the potential underlying pathological physiological process involving decreased responsiveness to B12 treatment, including B12 absorption, transport, intracellular metabolism, and mitochondrial MMA metabolism
As well as producing red blood cells, vitamin B12 transports oxygen throughout the body
GHK-Cu increases follicle size and vascularization (VEGF), while TB-500 activates stem cells in the follicle bulge, promoting the anagen (growth) phase
The compound is typically sold in lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder form and reconstituted with bacteriostatic water or saline before subcutaneous or intramuscular injection
Minoxidil's mechanism a systemic vasodilator with no follicle specificity means side effects can extend well beyond the scalp: unwanted facial hair, scalp irritation, contact dermatitis, and (in rare cases) cardiovascular changes from systemic absorption.6 GHK-Cu, as an endogenous peptide acting locally on the cells where it's applied, has no documented systemic side effects and no withdrawal phenomenon when discontinued
