research Anatomy and Function of the Skin
The skin is the largest organ, protecting the body, regulating temperature, and producing hormones.
research Role of insulin resistance and diet in acne
Eating high glycemic foods and drinking milk may worsen acne by increasing insulin and IGF-1 levels.
research Neuregulin3 alters cell fate in the epidermis and mammary gland
Neuregulin3 affects cell development in the skin and mammary glands.
research Periorbital facial rejuvenation; applied anatomy and pre-operative assessment
Good preoperative assessment is crucial for safe and effective eyelid and brow cosmetic surgery.
research The distributions of type IV collagen .ALPHA. chains in basement membranes of human epidermis and skin appendages
Type IV collagen chains vary in different parts of human skin, with specific patterns linked to melanocytes.
research Effect of thioredoxin reductase 1 on glucocorticoid receptor activity in human outer root sheath cells
Thioredoxin reductase 1 does not affect glucocorticoid receptor activity in hair follicle cells.
research Effects of cyclosporine A on clinical and histologic abnormalities in dogs with sebaceous adenitis
Cyclosporine A can reduce inflammation in dogs with sebaceous adenitis, but ongoing treatment is needed.
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 What does acne genetics teach us about disease pathogenesis?
Acne is significantly influenced by genetics, and understanding its genetic basis could lead to better, targeted treatments.
research Responses of hair follicle–associated structures to loss of planar cell polarity signaling
Loss of Fz6 disrupts hair follicle and associated structures' orientation.
research Smad4-dependent desmoglein-4 expression contributes to hair follicle integrity
Smad4 is important for healthy hair follicles because it helps produce a protein needed for hair to stick together and grow.
research Essential Role of Polarity Protein Par3 for Epidermal Homeostasis through Regulation of Barrier Function, Keratinocyte Differentiation, and Stem Cell Maintenance
The protein Par3 is crucial for healthy skin, affecting the skin barrier, cell differentiation, and stem cell maintenance.
research Biochemistry of epidermal stem cells
The review found that different stem cell types in the skin are crucial for repair and could help treat skin diseases and cancer.
research Targeted delivery of a poorly water-soluble compound to hair follicles using polymeric nanoparticle suspensions
Nanoparticles effectively deliver water-insoluble drugs to hair follicles, stimulating hair growth without irritating the skin.
research Inhibition of 5α-Reductase Activity in SZ95 Sebocytes and HaCaT Keratinocytes In Vitro
The substance MK386 effectively blocked testosterone conversion and reduced cell growth in certain skin cells, but inhibiting 5α-reductase alone may not greatly improve acne.
research Ovarian hormones and adrenal androgens during a woman's life span
Women's ovarian hormones and adrenal androgens change throughout life, affecting hair loss and health.
research Sebaceous Gland, Hair Shaft, and Epidermal Barrier Abnormalities in Keratosis Pilaris with and without Filaggrin Deficiency
Keratosis pilaris is often linked to genetic mutations and causes skin and hair abnormalities, regardless of those mutations.
research Sebaceous immunobiology - skin homeostasis, pathophysiology, coordination of innate immunity and inflammatory response and disease associations
Sebaceous glands play a key role in skin health, immunity, and various skin diseases.
research Beneficial effect of spironolactone on androgenic alopecia
Spironolactone may help reduce hair loss in androgenic alopecia.
research The Transmembrane Serine Protease HAT-like 4 Is Important for Epidermal Barrier Function to Prevent Body Fluid Loss
HAT-L4 is crucial for preventing body fluid loss by maintaining skin barrier integrity.
research TSA restores hair follicle-inductive capacity of skin-derived precursors
Trichostatin A helps restore hair-growing ability in skin cells used for hair regeneration.
research Skin and glucocorticoids: effects of local skin glucocorticoid impairment on skin homeostasis
Local skin glucocorticoid production is crucial for healthy skin, and its disruption can lead to skin diseases.
research Elevated ornithine decarboxylase activity promotes skin tumorigenesis by stimulating the recruitment of bulge stem cells but not via toxic polyamine catabolic metabolites
Increased ODC activity leads to skin tumors by recruiting stem cells, not by toxic byproducts.
research 5α‐Reductase Inhibitors
Finasteride effectively treats enlarged prostate and male baldness, improves symptoms of hirsutism in women, but doesn't work for acne, and may delay prostate cancer progression with few side effects.
research COVID-19 and hypopituitarism
COVID-19 and hypopituitarism (reduced pituitary gland function) are linked, with the latter's related health issues potentially worsening COVID-19 outcomes, and COVID-19 possibly increasing risk for pituitary complications.
research Meibomian Gland Dysfunction: Intense Pulsed Light Therapy in Combination with Low-Level Light Therapy as Rescue Treatment
Combined light therapy improves eye health and quality of life for those with meibomian gland dysfunction.
research Regional difference in sebum production by androgen susceptibility in human facial skin
The T-zone on the face has more androgen receptors and produces more oil than the U-zone.
research Prolactin Signaling Influences the Timing Mechanism of the Hair Follicle: Analysis of Hair Growth Cycles in Prolactin Receptor Knockout Mice
Prolactin affects when mice shed and grow hair.
research Androgenic Alopecia
The document concludes that treating female hair loss should target reducing excess androgen and blocking its effects on hair follicles, with the best treatments being hormonal therapy, adrenal suppression, and topical minoxidil.
