Epidermal growth factor as a biologic switch in hair growth cycle.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 11 Jul 2003

Mak Kingston K L, Chan Siu Yuen

Abstract excerpt

The hair growth cycle consists of three stages known as the anagen (growing), catagen (involution), and telogen (resting) phases. This cyclical growth of hair is regulated by a diversity of growth factors. Although normal expression of both epidermal growth factor and its receptor (EGFR) in the outer root sheath is down-regulated with the completion of follicular growth, here we show that continuous expression of...
