    gene encoding a transcription factor influencing hair follicle development

    FOXA1, or Forkhead Box A1, is a gene that encodes a transcription factor involved in regulating the expression of other genes. It plays a crucial role in the development and function of various tissues, including the liver, lungs, and prostate. In the context of hair biology, FOXA1 can influence hair follicle development and cycling, and its dysregulation may be implicated in conditions like alopecia.
