    A Hot New Twist to Hair Biology: The Role of TRPV1 in Human Hair Growth Control

    Enikő Bodó, Tamás Bı́ró, Andrea Telek … Ralf Paus
    Studysummary This study found that TRPV1 activation in human scalp hair follicles inhibited hair shaft elongation, suppressed proliferation, and induced apoptosis, suggesting TRPV1 as a potential target for managing hair growth and epithelial disorders.
