30 / 1000+ resultsresearch Loss of keratin 10 is accompanied by increased sebocyte proliferation and differentiation
Without keratin 10, there's more growth and development of oil-producing skin cells.
research Prevention of lipid loss from hair by surface and internal modification
Surface and internal treatments can help prevent hair lipid loss during washing.
research Sebaceous gland abnormalities in fatty acyl CoA reductase 2 (Far2) null mice result in primary cicatricial alopecia
Deleting the Far2 gene in mice causes sebaceous gland issues and patchy hair loss.
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 Preparation of 4-aryl-2-trifluoromethylbenzonitrile derivatives as androgen receptor antagonists for topical suppression of sebum production
Scientists made a chemical (compound 4e) that can be applied on skin to reduce oil production, which can help with acne, but it might cause skin sensitivity to light.
research Sebaceous Gland Regeneration in Human Skin Xenografts
Human sebaceous glands can grow back in skin grafts on mice and work like normal human glands.
research Diphenyl ethers as androgen receptor antagonists for the topical suppression of sebum production
Diphenyl ethers can potentially reduce excess oil production when applied on the skin, helping treat conditions like acne.
research Free internal lipids in hair from pre‐ and post‐menopausal women
Menopause reduces hair quality, but hormone therapy can help improve it.
research Pantolactams as androgen receptor antagonists for the topical suppression of sebum production
Pfizer found that pantolactam-based compounds can reduce sebum (skin oil) production when applied topically.
research Refatting rate of human hair lipids after exposure to selenium disulphide detergents
Selenium disulphide detergents increase hair oiliness by boosting some lipids and reducing fatty acids.
research Dual Case Reports for Lipid Loss from Human Hair
Changing hair's surface and structure can help protect its natural oils from being washed away.
research Sdr16c5 and Sdr16c6 control a dormant pathway at a bifurcation point between meibogenesis and sebogenesis
Sdr16c5 and Sdr16c6 genes regulate a key point in lipid production that affects eye and skin gland function.
research 666 Sebaceous gland abnormalities in fatty acyl CoA reductase 2 (Far2) null mice result in follicular dystrophy and primary cicatricial alopecia
Mutations in Far2 mice cause hair loss due to sebaceous gland issues.
research Convergent Decay of Skin-specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, showing complex skin evolution.
research Acne and sebaceous gland function
Effective acne treatments should reduce sebum, bacteria, and inflammation, with isotretinoin being the best for severe cases.
research Hair growth promoting effect of white wax and policosanol from white wax on the mouse model of testosterone-induced hair loss
White wax and policosanol from white wax effectively reduced hair loss and promoted hair growth in mice better than a known hair growth drug.
research In vivo evaluation of insect wax for hair growth potential
Insect wax, especially its policosanol content, may help hair regrow by changing hair follicle phases and increasing nutrient supply.
research The triacylglycerol synthesis enzyme DGAT1 also catalyzes the synthesis of diacylglycerols, waxes, and retinyl esters
DGAT1 enzyme helps make diacylglycerols, waxes, and retinyl esters.
research Squarticles as a Lipid Nanocarrier for Delivering Diphencyprone and Minoxidil to Hair Follicles and Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Squarticles effectively deliver hair growth drugs to follicles and dermal papilla cells.
research Runx1 Role in Epithelial and Cancer Cell Proliferation Implicates Lipid Metabolism and Scd1 and Soat1 Activity
Runx1 controls fat-related genes important for normal and cancer cell growth, affecting skin and hair cell behavior.
research Acyl-CoA binding protein and epidermal barrier function
ACBP is essential for healthy skin and fur by maintaining the skin's barrier function.
research The effect of a herbal paste and oil extract on the lipid content of canine hair fibres
Herbal paste and oil extract might improve dog hair quality by retaining lipids.
research Preparation and evaluation of a hair wax containing propolis and Eruca sativa seed oil for hair growth
The hair wax with propolis and Eruca sativa seed oil promotes hair growth effectively.

Twisting hair weakens it, but strength can be recovered at low twist levels.
research Inactivation of autophagy leads to changes in sebaceous gland morphology and function
Autophagy is crucial for normal sebaceous gland function and sebum composition.
research Genome assembly and methylome analysis of the white wax scale insect provides insight into sexual differentiation of metamorphosis in hexapod
The white wax scale insect's genome shows that complete metamorphosis evolved earlier than thought and highlights differences in male and female development.
research A New Strategy for Consumption of Functional Lipids from Ericerus pela (Chavannes): Study on Microcapsules and Effervescent Tablets Containing Insect Wax–Derived Policosanol
