    GlossaryTGFBR2 (TGF-beta receptor II)

    regulates cell growth and differentiation through TGF-beta signaling

    TGFBR2, or Transforming Growth Factor Beta Receptor 2, is a protein that plays a crucial role in cell signaling. It is part of the TGF-beta signaling pathway, which regulates various cellular processes, including cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis. Mutations or alterations in TGFBR2 can lead to various diseases, including cancer and fibrosis, due to its role in controlling cell behavior.

      The conversation discusses whether finasteride's reduction of DHT and increase in scalp testosterone contribute to hair follicle miniaturization. Some participants argue testosterone does not cause miniaturization, while others suggest that even with reduced DHT, other androgens like testosterone may still contribute to hair loss.
