Official title
Perifollicular Nerves in Alopecia Areata: Response to Topical Capsaicin
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
It has been postulated that Alopecia Areata (AA) is, at least in part, a neurologically mediated disease. Research supporting this theory includes the finding that nerves surrounding the hair follicles are collapsed. We want to take this research a step further and show that not only are these perifollicular nerves collapsed, but that their function is also impaired.
