Novel Insights into the Role of Keratinocytes-Expressed TRPV3 in the Skin.

ABSTRACT: TRPV3 is a non-selective cation channel that is highly expressed in keratinocytes in the skin. Traditionally, keratinocytes-expressed TRPV3 is involved in multiple physiological and pathological functions of the skin, such as itching, heat pain, and hair development. Although the underlying mechanisms by which TRPV3 functions in vivo remain obscure, recent research studies suggest that several cytokines and EGFR signaling pathways may be involved. However, there have also been other studies with opposite results that question the role of TRPV3 in heat pain. In addition, an increasing number of studies have suggested a novel role of TRPV3 in promoting skin regeneration, indicating that TRPV3 may become a new potential target for regulating skin regeneration. This paper not only reviews the
