GlossarySZ95 Sebocytes

human sebaceous gland cells used in skin research

SZ95 Sebocytes are a type of human sebaceous gland cell line used in scientific research. These cells are derived from sebaceous glands, which are responsible for producing sebum, an oily substance that helps keep the skin and hair moisturized. Researchers use SZ95 Sebocytes to study skin conditions, such as acne and alopecia, and to test the effects of various treatments on sebaceous gland function.
