We showed the activities on hair growth of the two Fgf-5 gene products, one of which, FGF-5 suppressed hair growth by inhibiting anagen proceeding and inducing the transition from anagen to catagen, and FGF-5S , a shorter polypeptide with FGF-5 antagonizing activity translated from alternatively spliced mRNA, suppressed this activity of FGF-5
