    are proteins that regulate and promote hair growth

    Hair Growth-Related Proteins are specific proteins that play crucial roles in the regulation and promotion of hair growth. These proteins include keratin, which forms the structural foundation of hair, and growth factors like fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF), which stimulate hair follicle development and cycling. Understanding these proteins is essential for developing treatments for hair loss conditions such as alopecia.
