Is there a new cure from Wayne State University for grey hair utilizing catalase enzyme?
The research presents the possibility of preventing gray hair (not changing hair that is already gray). The research took place in Europe and the technology is being marketed by EXT Life Sciences Inc. (Wayne State Un) ORIGINAL RESEARCH: Stanford, CA (AHN) – European scientists have found that four enzymes cause hair to turn gray. The breakthrough findings introduce leads on how to stop hair from graying. The researchers from the Universities of Bradford, Mainz and Luebeck, whose findings are published in the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology’s journal, found that lack of the enzyme catalase causes the build up of hydrogen peroxide, which blocks the production of the enzyme tyrosinase. Tyrosinase produces melanin, the hair’s natural pigment. There is also a reduction of repair enzymes A and B preventing hair follicles from repairing the damage caused by the build up of hydrogen peroxide. “This discovery is a major breakthrough in the understanding of hair greying
