research Percutaneous absorption of a new antiandrogen included in liposomes or in solution
Liposomes can make the antiandrogen RU 58841 more effective for skin application by reducing absorption, increasing skin retention, and targeting sebaceous structures.
research Topical ALA-Photodynamic Therapy for Acne Can Induce Apoptosis of Sebocytes and Down-regulate Their TLR-2 and TLR-4 Expression
ALA-photodynamic therapy helps reduce acne by causing acne cell death and lowering certain skin protein levels.
![Distribution of 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3[22-Oxa] In Vivo Receptor Binding in Adult and Developing Skin](/images/research/d9b990e6-6243-4abe-b868-68801a5844f7/small/35023.jpg)
research Distribution of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3[22-oxa] in vivo receptor binding in adult and developing skin
OCT binds strongly to hair sheath cells and may affect skin and hair growth with fewer side effects than vitamin D3.
research Isotretinoin treatment upregulates the expression of p53 in the skin and sebaceous glands of patients with acne vulgaris
Acne treatment with isotretinoin increases the presence of p53, a protein, in skin and oil glands, which may help reduce acne severity.
research Glycerol Regulates Stratum Corneum Hydration in Sebaceous Gland Deficient (Asebia) Mice

research Selected Disorders of Skin Appendages—Acne, Alopecia, Hyperhidrosis
The conclusion is that acne, alopecia, and hyperhidrosis are common skin issues with various treatments available, and accurate diagnosis is key for effective management.
research Distinct mechanisms for sebaceous gland self-renewal and regeneration provide durability in response to injury
Sebaceous glands can regenerate after injury using stem cells from hair follicles.
research Hirsutism
Hirsutism is excessive male-pattern hair growth in women, often caused by hormonal imbalances, and requires ongoing treatment to manage.
research Local and Systemic Reduction by Topical Finasteride or Flutamide of Hamster Flank Organ Size and Enzyme Activity
Topical finasteride and flutamide reduce gland size and enzyme activity, with flutamide being more potent, potentially treating acne, seborrhea, hirsutism, and androgenic alopecia.
research Genetically modified laboratory mice with sebaceous glands abnormalities
Genetic changes in mice help understand skin and hair disorders, aiding treatment development for acne and hair loss.
research Loss of Gata6 causes dilation of the hair follicle canal and sebaceous duct
Removing Gata6 causes hair follicle and sebaceous duct enlargement.
research Cutaneous Adnexal Cysts Revisited: What We Know and What We Think We Know
A new classification system for skin cysts was proposed to improve diagnosis.
research Androgenic effect of testosterone and some of its metabolites in relation to their biotransformation in the skin.
Testosterone and some of its forms can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in skin.
research Diagnosis of common, benign neonatal dermatoses
The article helps identify common, non-harmful skin conditions in newborns to avoid undue concern and treatment.
research Non-invasive human skin transcriptome analysis using mRNA in skin surface lipids

research Lichen Planopilaris
Lichen Planopilaris is a hair loss condition best treated early with various medications, including hydroxychloroquine, to prevent permanent baldness.
research 280 Investigation into the role of HIF-1A stabilisation in hair follicle metabolism
Stabilizing HIF-1A in hair follicles may reduce oxidative stress and promote hair growth by increasing glycolysis.
research Androgen Treatment in Women
Testosterone therapy can help postmenopausal women with low sexual desire but needs more safety research and should be used with estrogen therapy.
research Linking diet to acne metabolomics, inflammation, and comedogenesis: an update
Eating less sugar, milk, and saturated fats and more vegetables and fish may help treat and prevent acne.
research Skin ageing
