GlossaryNFATc4

protein regulating gene expression in immune and hair follicle cells

NFATc4 stands for Nuclear Factor of Activated T-cells, cytoplasmic 4. It is a protein that plays a crucial role in the regulation of gene expression in response to various signals, particularly in the immune system. In the context of hair biology, NFATc4 can influence the growth and development of hair follicles by regulating the expression of specific genes involved in these processes.
