GlossaryCD90 (Thy1)

cell surface protein involved in cell adhesion and signaling

CD90, also known as Thy-1, is a cell surface protein that plays a role in cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. It is commonly found on stem cells, neurons, and fibroblasts, and is involved in processes such as cell adhesion, migration, and differentiation. In the context of hair biology, CD90 is often studied for its role in the regulation of hair follicle stem cells and their ability to regenerate hair.
