Glossary Fibroblast Growth Factor 18

protein that regulates cell growth and hair follicle maintenance

Fibroblast Growth Factor 18 (FGF18) is a protein that plays a crucial role in cell growth, tissue repair, and development. It is particularly important in the regulation of hair growth and the maintenance of hair follicles, making it a significant factor in studies related to hair loss and alopecia.
