research Hair follicle stem cells: Walking the maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research Bone Morphogenetic Protein Signaling Regulates Postnatal Hair Follicle Differentiation and Cycling
Blocking BMP signaling causes hair loss and disrupts hair growth cycles.
research Strategic Targets in Acne: The Comedone Switch in Question
The best way to treat acne is to prevent healthy skin glands from turning into acne lesions by controlling the triggers early on.
research Activity of type 1 5α-reductase is greater in the follicular infrainfundibulum compared with the epidermis
The enzyme type 1 5α-reductase is more active in the hair follicle's lower part than in the skin's outer layer.
research Rational Design of a Topical Androgen Receptor Antagonist for the Suppression of Sebum Production with Properties Suitable for Follicular Delivery
A new compound was created in 2010 that can control oil production when applied to the skin, and its effects are completely reversible after two weeks.
research Characterization of Hair Follicle Development in Engineered Skin Substitutes
Engineered skin substitutes can grow hair but have limitations like missing sebaceous glands and hair not breaking through the skin naturally.
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 Ultraviolet B irradiation increases the expression of inflammatory cytokines in cultured sebocytes
UV-B light increases inflammation-related substances in acne-related skin cells.
research Structure and Function of the Skin
The skin has multiple layers and cells, serves as a protective barrier, helps regulate temperature, enables sensation, affects appearance, and is involved in vitamin D synthesis.
research Preparing the hair follicle canal for hair shaft emergence
A specific type of skin cell creates an opening for hair to grow out, and problems with this process can lead to skin conditions.
research 686 Evaluation of contamination and quantification of drug penetrations studies using Quantitative Mass Spectrometry Imaging
QMSI is a valuable method for studying drug penetration in skin tissues.
research Skin structure
Human skin has multiple layers and functions, with key roles in protection, temperature control, and appearance.
research Effects of AiQingHua oil on microcirculation disturbance and alopecia mice model
AiQingHua oil improves blood flow and promotes hair growth in mice.
research Hair morphogenesisin vitro: formation of hair structures suitable for implantation
Scientists created early-stage hairs from mouse cells that grew into normal, pigmented hair when implanted into other mice.
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 Differentiation of Mouse Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells into a Multipotent Keratinocyte Lineage
Scientists turned mouse stem cells into skin cells that can grow into skin layers and structures.
research Pharmacological Inhibition of DGAT1 Induces Sebaceous Gland Atrophy in Mouse and Dog Skin While Overt Alopecia Is Restricted to the Mouse
Blocking DGAT1 reduces oil gland size in mice and dogs, but only mice experience hair loss.
research Skin steroidogenesis in health and disease
The skin's ability to produce hormones is linked to various skin conditions, and better understanding this process could lead to new treatments.
research Systematic Review on Herbs with Antidandruff Property
Herbs like Tea Tree Oil and Aloe Vera could be safer, more conditioning antidandruff alternatives to synthetic products.
research Potential Health Benefit of Dates Based on Human Intervention Studies: A Brief Overview
Dates may improve heart health, fight infections, protect kidneys, reduce inflammation, support pregnancy, promote dental and bone health, enhance mental function, and have anti-cancer properties, and are also beneficial for skin and hair care.
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 Marked Reduction of the Number and Individual Volume of Sebaceous Glands in Psoriatic Lesions
Psoriasis lesions have fewer and smaller oil glands, which might affect the condition's development.
research Epidermal PPARγ Is a Key Homeostatic Regulator of Cutaneous Inflammation and Barrier Function in Mouse Skin
PPARγ is essential for maintaining healthy skin, controlling inflammation, and ensuring proper skin barrier function.
research Ectopic Sebaceous Glands in the Hair Follicle Matrix: Case Reports and Literature Review of this Embryogenic Anomaly
The cause and importance of misplaced oil glands in the hair follicle are not well understood.
research Heat-killed Lacticaseibacillus paracasei GMNL-653 ameliorates human scalp health by regulating scalp microbiome
Shampoo with heat-killed Lacticaseibacillus paracasei GMNL-653 improves scalp health and hair growth by changing scalp bacteria.
research Androgens Affect the Activity of Human Sebocytes in Culture in a Manner Dependent on the Localization of the Sebaceous Glands and Their Effect Is Antagonized by Spironolactone
Male hormones affect oil-producing skin cells differently based on their body location, and the drug spironolactone can reduce these effects.
research Immunolocalization of 5α-Reductase Isozymes in Acne Lesions and Normal Skin
The study found that the enzyme linked to acne is present in the same areas of both acne-affected and normal skin.
research C/EBPα and C/EBPβ Are Required for Sebocyte Differentiation and Stratified Squamous Differentiation in Adult Mouse Skin
C/EBPalpha and C/EBPbeta are crucial for normal skin and oil gland cell development in adult mice.
research Hair Follicular Expression and Function of Group X Secreted Phospholipase A2 in Mouse Skin
