TLDR Immune cells might contribute to hair loss caused by a specific mutation.

The document discussed the potential role of immune cells in the hair loss process caused by a TRPV3 gain-of-function mutation. This mutation was linked to abnormal hair growth and loss, suggesting that immune cells might contribute to the pathology. The findings highlighted the importance of understanding the immune system's involvement in hair disorders, which could lead to new therapeutic strategies for treating hair loss conditions.
