Spironolactone, a heart and liver drug, has new uses including cancer treatment, viral infection prevention, and skin condition improvement.
research Genetic basis of polycystic ovary syndrome
The document concludes that PCOS has a strong genetic component, but more research is needed to fully understand the specific genes involved.
research Cutaneous manifestations of endocrine-metabolic disease and nutritional deficiency in the elderly
Skin problems in older people can indicate hormonal diseases, nutritional deficiencies, or conditions like diabetes, menopause, and HIV.
research SOX9 in organogenesis: shared and unique transcriptional functions
SOX9 is essential for the development of various organs and hair follicles.
research Making the head: Caspases in life and death
Caspases are enzymes important for both cell death and various non-lethal cell functions, affecting head development and hair growth, with different caspases playing specific roles.
research Melanocytes and Vitiligo (and Hair Graying)
Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.
research The Role of ATP-dependent Chromatin Remodeling in the Control of Epidermal Differentiation and Skin Stem Cell Activity
ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling is crucial for skin development and stem cell function.
research 194 An underlying mechanism of hair loss in acrodermatitis enteropathica
Zinc deficiency disrupts hair growth and cycle, but zinc supplements can fix this.
research 1377 Exploring the factors to regulate sweating by transcriptome analysis for anhidrosis: Novel role of olfactory receptors on sweating via exposing to β-ionone
Sweating can potentially be controlled through olfactory receptors, with β-ionone playing a key role, and responses may vary between genders.
research Extensive scleredema adultorum with loss of eccrine glands
A rare case of scleredema in a diabetic woman showed loss of sweat glands, causing heat strokes, with treatment only slightly improving symptoms.
research Type 1 interferon signature and cytotoxic T lymphocyte activation targeted against sweat ducts in inflammatory acquired idiopathic generalized anhidrosis
Inflammation damages sweat ducts, causing sweat gland injury.
research Immediate Reduction in Sweat Secretion With Electric Current Application in Primary Palmar Hyperhidrosis
Electric current quickly reduces hand sweating but the effect doesn't last long.
research The secretory clear cell of the eccrine sweat gland as the probable source of excess sweat production in hyperhidrosis
Eccrine sweat gland's clear cells likely cause excessive sweating in hyperhidrosis.
research 259 Immunohistochemical insight into the association between the collapse of immune privilege in the sweat gland and syringotropic immune cell infiltrates in collagen diseases
The study found that sweat glands normally suppress immune responses, but this is disrupted in certain skin diseases, possibly contributing to their development.
research Syringolymphoid hyperplasia with alopecia and anhidrosis in a 12‐year‐old boy: a case report from rural south India
A 12-year-old boy in rural south India had a rare skin condition causing hair loss and inability to sweat.
research A dramatic case of diabetic gustatory hyperhidrosis successfully treated with topical glycopyrrolate
Topical glycopyrrolate lotion helped reduce excessive sweating from eating in a diabetic man.
research 250 Sweat glands shrink upward with aging, causing dermal layer defects that lead to loss of skin elasticity and wrinkling-establishment of 3D imaging method for skin appendages
Aging causes sweat glands to shrink and move upward, leading to less elastic skin and more wrinkles.
research Small molecules facilitate single factor-mediated sweat gland cell reprogramming
Small molecules can help turn skin cells into sweat gland-like cells for potential skin repair.
research Pharmacovigilance-based drug repurposing: searching for putative drugs with hypohidrosis or anhidrosis adverse events for use against hyperhidrosis
Certain existing drugs, like glycopyrronium and botulinum toxin type A, may help treat excessive sweating.
research Sweat Hypersensitivity‐Induced Urticaria and Sebaceous Adenitis in an American Saddlebred
Sweat hypersensitivity can cause severe skin issues in horses.
research Apocrine sweat gland obstruction by antiperspirants allowing transdermal absorption of cutaneous generated hormones and pheromones as a link to the observed incidence rates of breast and prostate cancer in the 20th century
The document suggests that blocking sweat glands with antiperspirants might allow skin-generated hormones to be absorbed, possibly increasing breast and prostate cancer risk.
research Characterization of X‐linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (XL‐HED) hair and sweat gland phenotypes using phototrichogram analysis and live confocal imaging
People with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia have no sweat ducts and less, thinner hair.
research A Unique Acquired Athletic Dermatologic Condition in a Half Marathon Participant: An Autobiographical Case Report of Sports-Associated Clothing Related Axillary Tangled Clumped Hairs (SCRATCH)
A runner developed tangled armpit hairs from shirt friction, preventable by shaving or wearing smooth shirts.
research Poikiloderma, hyperpigmentation, alopecia, hypohidrosis, malformed bones, lymphedema of the legs and decreased cortisol level: A new entity?
A new medical syndrome may include skin changes, hair loss, sweating issues, bone malformations, leg swelling, and low cortisol.
research Is seborrhea a sign of autonomic impairment in Parkinson's disease?
Seborrhea in Parkinson's disease may be linked to hormones, not autonomic impairment.
research Occult syringomas of scalp associated with progressive hair loss
Hidden sweat gland tumors might cause hair loss.
