Mutations in the LSS gene cause a rare type of hereditary hair loss.

Androgens like testosterone affect hair growth and oil production differently across body parts and individuals.

Men with male-pattern baldness have more androgen receptors in their scalp's oil glands, which may contribute to hair loss.

BLIMP1 is essential for skin maintenance but not for defining sebaceous gland progenitors.

Low doses of mixed chemicals cause permanent reproductive malformations in male rats.

Androgen receptor activity blocks Wnt/β-catenin signaling, affecting hair growth and skin cell balance.

Different species and human skin models vary in their skin enzyme activities, with pig skin and some models closely matching human skin, useful for safety assessments and understanding the skin's protective roles.

Autophagy is crucial for normal sebaceous gland function and sebum composition.

Men with baldness have higher levels of specific proteins, suggesting local hormone production may play a role in hair loss.

Stress can worsen skin conditions and affect mental health, so doctors should include stress management in skin treatment.
