    GlossaryTransforming Growth Factor Beta 2 (TGFB2)

    regulates cell growth, differentiation, and immune responses

    Transforming Growth Factor Beta 2 (TGF-β2) is a protein that plays a crucial role in regulating cell growth, differentiation, and immune responses. It is part of the TGF-beta family, which is involved in various biological processes, including wound healing, tissue regeneration, and the development of the immune system. In the context of hair, TGF-β2 can influence hair follicle development and cycling, potentially impacting conditions like alopecia.
