GlossaryAmphiregulin

protein involved in cell growth and tissue repair

Amphiregulin is a protein that plays a crucial role in cell growth and healing. It binds to the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) on cells, which can stimulate processes like tissue repair and hair growth. In the context of alopecia, understanding amphiregulin's function could help in developing treatments to promote hair regeneration.
