GlossaryLgr6

protein involved in hair follicle stem cell regulation

Lgr6, or Leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein coupled receptor 6, is a protein that plays a crucial role in the regulation of stem cells in the hair follicle. It is involved in hair growth and regeneration, making it significant in studies related to hair loss and alopecia. For professionals, Lgr6 is a marker for a specific population of stem cells that can contribute to tissue repair and regeneration.
