The document concludes that new treatments are needed to better manage acne and reduce side effects related to current therapies.
research A multicentre placebo‐controlled clinical trial on the efficacy of oral ciclosporin A in the treatment of canine idiopathic sebaceous adenitis in comparison with conventional topical treatment
Oral ciclosporin A and topical treatments both reduce hair loss and scaling in dogs with sebaceous adenitis, but using both together is most effective.
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 Importance of Sebaceous Glands in Cutaneous Penetration of an Antiandrogen: Target Effect of Liposomes
Sebaceous glands in the skin play a key role in absorbing the antiandrogen drug RU 58841, especially when it's encapsulated in liposomes.
research Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia in a Man: Results of Follicular Unit Test Grafting
Hair transplantation may not work for Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia as transplanted hair was lost when the disease came back.
research The Ludwig pattern of androgenetic alopecia is due to a hierarchy of androgen sensitivity within follicular units that leads to selective miniaturization and a reduction in the number of terminal hairs per follicular unit
Ludwig pattern hair loss in women results from varying sensitivity in hair follicles, causing fewer visible hairs.
research New Pharmaceutical Concepts for Sebaceous Gland Diseases: Implementing Today’s Pre-Clinical Data into Tomorrow’s Daily Clinical Practice
New treatments for skin conditions related to the sebaceous gland are being developed based on current research.
research A study of donor area in follicular unit hair transplantation

Topical tretinoin effectively treated sebaceous filaments, improving skin appearance.
research Reply to ‘What is the effect of obesity on the folliculosebaceous unit?’
Obesity is linked to more severe hair loss in adult men and to excess hair growth, but its effects on hair conditions are complex and need more research.
research The Distribution of Estrogen Receptor β Is Distinct to That of Estrogen Receptor α and the Androgen Receptor in Human Skin and the Pilosebaceous Unit
Estrogen Receptor ß (ERß) is the main hormone controller in human skin and hair follicles, not Estrogen Receptor α (ERα) or the Androgen Receptor (AR).
