GlossaryActivin A

protein influencing hair follicle development and cycling

Activin A is a protein that plays a crucial role in regulating various biological processes, including inflammation, cell growth, and tissue repair. In the context of hair biology, it has been found to influence hair follicle development and cycling, potentially impacting conditions like alopecia (hair loss).
