research Acne and Systemic Disease
Hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in acne, which can be a symptom of systemic diseases like PCOS and may require targeted treatment.
research Advances in mitochondria-centered mechanism behind the roles of androgens and androgen receptor in the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism
Androgens and androgen receptors are important for metabolic health, affecting how the body uses glucose and fats through mitochondrial function.
research Aging of the hair follicle pigmentation system
Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.
research Expression and functional relevance of melatonin receptors in hair follicle biology
Melatonin receptors in hair follicles help regulate hair growth and could treat hair loss.
research New effects of caffeine on corticotropin‐releasing hormone (CRH)‐induced stress along the intrafollicular classical hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis (CRH‐R1/2, IP3‐R, ACTH, MC‐R2) and the neurogenic non‐HPA axis (substance P, p75NTRand TrkA) inex vivohuman male androgenetic scalp hair follicles
Caffeine may help reduce stress-induced hair loss.
research Chronic Stress Suppresses the Expression of Cutaneous Hypothalamic–Pituitary–Adrenocortical Axis Elements and Melanogenesis
Chronic stress can reduce skin pigmentation.
research Emerging Therapies for Acne Vulgaris
New acne treatments show promise as alternatives to traditional therapies.
research Hormone therapy in acne
Hormonal treatment is effective for women with acne not helped by usual treatments, especially if they have hormonal imbalances.
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 Acne
Acne is a common skin condition linked to diet, hormones, and genetics, and early treatment can prevent scarring.
research Acne: Hormonal concepts and therapy
Hormones, especially androgens, play a big role in acne, but most acne sufferers don't have a hormone disorder. Hormonal treatments, including birth control pills, can be very effective for women whose acne doesn't improve with regular treatments.
research Progress and prospects: gene therapy for performance and appearance enhancement
Gene therapy shows promise for enhancing physical traits but faces ethical, safety, and regulatory challenges.
research Anti-Acne Agents Attenuate FGFR2 Signal Transduction in Acne
Anti-acne medications may work by reducing the activity of a protein involved in acne development.
research Beyond acne: Current aspects of sebaceous gland biology and function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research Foot shock stress prolongs the telogen stage of the spontaneous hair cycle in a non‐depilated mouse model
Stress in mice delays hair growth and treatments blocking substance P can partly reverse this effect.
research Stress and Psychoneuroimmunologic Factors in Dermatology
Stress and emotional factors can worsen skin conditions by affecting the immune system.
research Keratinocytes regulate the function of melanocytes
Keratinocytes control how melanocytes work.
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 Pathways to inflammation: acne pathophysiology
Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.
research Hormonal treatment of acne vulgaris: an update
Hormonal treatments are effective for severe or persistent acne and should be used with other acne therapies, considering potential side effects.
research Involvement of the central hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in hair growth and melanogenesis among different mouse strains
Stress can slow hair growth and affect skin color by impacting the body's stress response system.
research Alopecia areata – hyperactivity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis is a myth?
The study found no significant difference in stress hormone levels between people with alopecia areata and healthy individuals, suggesting that the disease is not caused by an overactive stress response system.
research Clinical and biological impact of the exposome on the skin
Environmental factors, hormones, nutrition, and stress all significantly affect skin health and aging.
research Overweight and Obesity in Children and Adolescents
Childhood obesity is rising globally due to various factors, and early prevention and healthy lifestyle changes are crucial.
research Improved cutaneous wound healing after intraperitoneal injection of alpha‐melanocyte‐stimulating hormone
Injecting alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone in mice improved skin healing and reduced scarring.
research Neuroimmunology of Stress: Skin Takes Center Stage
Stress can worsen skin and hair conditions by affecting the skin's immune response and hormone levels.
research Advances in Vitiligo Treatment
Vitiligo treatment requires a personalized mix of therapies to restore skin color and improve life quality.
research Pharmacodynamic Evaluation: Endocrinology
The conclusion is that endocrinology significantly impacts medicine with various common medications used for treatment.
research Oral zinc sulphate causes murine hair hypopigmentation and is a potent inhibitor of eumelanogenesisin vivo
Oral zinc sulphate reduces dark hair color in mice.
