    Glossary β-catenin

    protein involved in cell signaling and hair follicle regulation

    β-catenin is a protein that plays a crucial role in cell signaling and the regulation of cell growth and development. It is a key component of the Wnt signaling pathway, which is important for processes like embryonic development and the maintenance of adult tissues, including hair follicles. Abnormal β-catenin activity is associated with various conditions, including cancer and hair loss disorders like alopecia.
