peptide growth factors hair follicles androgynous alopecia focal alopecia

TLDR Growth factors influence hair growth and hair loss.

The article reviewed literature on the role of growth factors in hair physiology, highlighting their involvement in initiating, suppressing growth, and differentiating hair follicles. It was noted that each stage of hair follicle development had a distinct pattern of factor expression. The authors discussed experimental and clinical studies that demonstrated the role of certain growth factors in the mechanisms promoting androgynous and focal alopecia.
