    GlossarySignal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 5

    protein that transmits signals to influence gene expression

    Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 5 (STAT5) is a protein that plays a crucial role in transmitting signals from the cell surface to the nucleus, where it can influence gene expression. It is particularly important in processes like cell growth, differentiation, and immune function. In the context of hair biology, STAT5 can be involved in the regulation of hair follicle development and cycling.
