GlossaryBone Morphogenetic Protein 6

protein involved in bone development and hair follicle regulation

Bone Morphogenetic Protein 6 (BMP6) is a protein that plays a crucial role in the development and repair of bones and cartilage. It is part of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) superfamily and is involved in various biological processes, including the regulation of hair follicle growth and differentiation.
