research Hedgehog and Gli Signaling in Embryonic Mammary Gland Development
Hedgehog signaling is crucial for mammary gland development over hair follicles.
research Androgen receptor expression in male pattern baldness patients
Increased androgen receptor expression in certain hair follicle areas may cause male pattern baldness.
research The existence of a linear system consisting of sympathetic endings in rat skin
Rat skin has a linear system of nerve fibers linked to hair follicles and muscles.
research 1405 Cellular and molecular characterization of sebaceous gland self-renewal and regeneration following complete genetic ablation
The research found that a protein called PPARg is important for the formation and healing of sebaceous glands, which can regenerate independently from hair follicles.
research Peripheral patterns of calcitonin‐gene‐related peptide general somatic sensory innervation: Cutaneous and deep terminations
CGRP-IR axons may help maintain and renew tissues.
research Study regarding the microscopic aspects of pilo-sebaceous units after antiandrogen treatment in hirsute women.
Antiandrogen treatment helps reduce hair follicles and sebaceous glands in hirsute women.
research Loss of Gata6 causes dilation of the hair follicle canal and sebaceous duct
Removing Gata6 causes hair follicle and sebaceous duct enlargement.
research Expansion of Hair Follicle Stem Cells Sticking to Isolated Sebaceous Glands to Generate in Vivo Epidermal Structures
Sebaceous glands can help harvest hair follicle stem cells to regenerate skin and hair.
research Expression of Potential Dermal Progenitor Cell Markers in the Tumour and Stroma of Skin Adnexal Malignant and Benign Tumours
Markers CRABP1, Nestin, and Ephrin B2 are present in skin cancer environments and may influence their development.
research Copious Pre‐Ejaculation: Small Glands—Major Headaches
Excessive pre-ejaculation can be treated with certain medications.
research 212 DISTURBANCES OF REPRODUCTIVE FUNCTION IN WOMEN WITH PITUITARY ADENOMA
Women with pituitary adenomas often have reproductive issues, like irregular periods and trouble getting pregnant, but not always breast milk production without pregnancy.
research Hedgehog Signaling, Keratin 6 Induction, and Sebaceous Gland Morphogenesis
Hedgehog signaling is essential for normal sebaceous gland development and affects keratin 6a expression.
research From the Microscopic Sweat Gland to Large Datasets: The Power of Quantitative Traits in Dermatology

research Endophytes in Southeast Asia and Japan: their taxonomic diversity and potential applications
Endophytes from Southeast Asia and Japan can produce useful substances like enzymes and antibiotics.
research Avaliação de alterações estruturais envolvendo o surgimento de tecido adiposo em localizações anômalas e o deslocamento de glândulas crinas em três alopecias cicatriciais primárias linfocíticas
Adipose tissue and eccrine gland displacement are common in certain alopecias but don't help differentiate between them.
research Metamorph analysis and quantification of activated eccrine glands in alopecia areata
Eccrine gland activity may be linked to alopecia areata.
research Pilosebaceous Unit (PSU)
Androgens and other hormones affect hair growth and skin conditions like acne.
research Plaque type herpetic folliculitis involving the eccrine gland: Immunohistochemical analysis
Plaque-type herpetic folliculitis affects eccrine glands.
research Morphological and morphometric study of the androgenetic alopecic scalp using two- and three-dimensional analysis comparing regional differences
The study found that balding scalps have more thin hairs and larger oil glands, which might contribute to skin conditions related to hair loss.
research Hair Follicle Biology, the Sebaceous Gland, and Scarring Alopecias
Hair follicles grow hair and release it through the skin.
research Salivary gland function in persons with ectodermal dysplasias
People with ectodermal dysplasias often have reduced saliva production and should get saliva tests.
research Follicular Hybrid Cyst With Isthmic-Catagen, Pilomatrical, and Syringocystadenoma Papilliferum Components
A rare neck cyst in a 47-year-old man showed diverse skin cell types and was not linked to HPV.
research Androgen-induced norepinephrine release in male accessory sex organ smooth muscle growth and differentiation
Androgens increase norepinephrine release, promoting smooth muscle growth in male sex organs, which may contribute to benign prostatic hypertrophy.
research 706 Engrailed-1 promotes eccrine sweat gland development in permissive environments
The Engrailed-1 gene plays a key role in the development of sweat glands in mice.
research Primary cilia regulate Meibomian glands development and dimensions without impairing lipid composition of the meibum
Primary cilia affect the size and oil production of eye glands but not the oil's makeup.
research Decision letter: Structural basis of malodour precursor transport in the human axilla
The study identified a key protein involved in producing underarm odor and found ways to inhibit it.
research Depletion of S100A4+ stromal cells results in abnormal nipple development and nursing failure
