    gene encoding an olfactory receptor influencing hair growth

    OR2AT4 is a gene that encodes a specific type of olfactory receptor, which is typically involved in the sense of smell. Interestingly, research has shown that this receptor is also present in human hair follicles and can influence hair growth when activated by certain compounds, such as Sandalore, a synthetic sandalwood odorant. This discovery has potential implications for treating conditions like alopecia, where hair growth is impaired.
