FGF5 (Fibroblast Growth Factor 5): FGF5 is a gene that encodes a protein belonging to the fibroblast growth factor family, which plays a role in cell growth, differentiation, and signaling. FGF5 regulates hair growth cycles and affects hair length in various species. It also participates in tissue development and repair, including functions in neural development. Abnormal FGF5 activity has been associated with certain diseases, including cancer.
