research Treatment Guidelines in Adult Women: Effectiveness of Hormonal Therapy in Treating Acne Vulgaris
Hormonal therapy is effective for treating acne in adult women, especially with signs of high androgen levels.
research Antiandrogens and Androgen Inhibitors in Dermatologic Treatments
Antiandrogens and androgen inhibitors like spironolactone, finasteride, and dutasteride can treat hair loss and skin conditions, but they have risks and side effects, including potential harm to pregnant women and risks of cancer and heart issues. Herbal remedies also have antiandrogenic effects but lack safety validation.
research Differential Molecular Signature of Dermal Papilla Cells from Balding and Non-Balding Scalp in 2D, 3D Culture and Co-Culture with Adipose-Derived Stem Cells
Dermal Papilla Cells grown in 3D and with stem cells better mimic natural hair growth conditions than cells grown in 2D.
research Intracrine Androgen Biosynthesis, Metabolism, and Action Revisited
The document concludes that blocking the internal pathways that create androgens might help treat cancers that depend on sex hormones.
research Sex Hormones and Acne: The Role of the Skin as an Endocrine Organ
Sex hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in causing acne.
research Hormonal Effects on Hair Follicles
Hormones like testosterone and estrogen significantly affect hair growth and structure.
research FASCE: The Benefit of Spironolactone for Treating Acne in Women - Study Protocol for a Randomized Double-Blind Trial
The trial aims to test if spironolactone is an effective acne treatment for women without the side effects of current treatments.
research 11β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type 1 Inhibition Attenuates the Adverse Effects of Glucocorticoids on Dermal Papilla Cells
Blocking 11β-HSD1 can lessen the harmful effects of glucocorticoids on hair growth cells.
research Role of Insulin Resistance and Diet in Acne
Eating high glycemic foods and drinking milk may worsen acne by increasing insulin and IGF-1 levels.
research Epidermal Stem Cells: Practical Perspectives and Potential Uses
Epidermal stem cells could lead to new treatments for skin and hair disorders.
research Side Effects of Common Acne Treatments
Common acne treatments can cause various side effects, like skin irritation and more serious issues, but combination therapies are often more effective and better tolerated.
research Consensus on the Use of Oral Isotretinoin in Dermatology - Brazilian Society of Dermatology
The Brazilian Society of Dermatology agrees that oral isotretinoin is effective for acne and other skin conditions, and it's safe when monitored, but more research is needed on dosing and duration.
research Role of Insulin, Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1, Hyperglycemic Food, and Milk Consumption in the Pathogenesis of Acne Vulgaris
Eating high-glycemic foods and drinking milk may worsen acne by increasing insulin and IGF-1 levels.
research Role of FGFR2-Signaling in the Pathogenesis of Acne
Increased FGFR2b signaling, influenced by androgens, plays a role in causing acne.
research The Organ-Maintained Human Sebaceous Gland
Human sebaceous glands can grow normally for a week without certain growth factors, and adding estrogen reduces their oil production without affecting cell growth.
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 Epithelially Derived MPZL3 Negatively Regulates Murine and Human Sebaceous Gland Size and Sebocyte Proliferation
MPZL3 protein helps control the size of oil glands and the growth of oil-producing cells in both mice and humans.
research Greasy Hair Against Obesity: TSLP-Induced Sebum Production Reduces Fat
Increasing sebum production might help reduce fat and improve metabolism.
research MPZL3 Functions as a Negative Regulator of Sebaceous Gland Size and Sebocyte Proliferation
MPZL3 protein helps keep sebaceous gland size and cell growth in check.
research Innate Immunity Activation of Sebocyte Cells by Living Bacteria: Evidence of a Potential Immunosuppressive Effect of DHT
DHT may reduce inflammation caused by certain bacteria in skin cells.
research Human Pilosebaceous Culture
Hair follicle cells can help heal wounds and study skin diseases.
research Human Scalp Hair Follicles Are Both a Target and a Source of Prolactin, Which Serves as an Autocrine and/or Paracrine Promoter of Apoptosis-Driven Hair Follicle Regression
Prolactin contributes to hair loss by promoting hair follicle shrinkage and cell death.
research Sex Steroid Synthesis in Human Skin In Situ: The Roles of Aromatase and Steroidogenic Acute Regulatory Protein in the Homeostasis of Human Skin
Human skin produces sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone, influenced by ARO and StAR, which may affect skin elasticity and hair growth.
research Multi-Potentiality of a New Immortalized Epithelial Stem Cell Line Derived from Human Hair Follicles
Scientists created a long-lasting stem cell line from human hair that can turn into different skin and hair cell types.
research Use of Human Intra-Tissue Stem/Progenitor Cells and Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells for Hair Follicle Regeneration
Stem cells can help regenerate hair follicles.
research Treatment of Cultured Sebocytes with an EGFR Inhibitor Does Not Lead to Significant Upregulation of Inflammatory Biomarkers
Blocking EGFR in skin cells doesn't majorly increase inflammation markers.
research Xenobiotic-Metabolizing Enzymes in the Skin of Rat, Mouse, Pig, Guinea Pig, Man, and in Human Skin Models
Different species and human skin models vary in their skin enzyme activities, with pig skin and some models closely matching human skin, useful for safety assessments and understanding the skin's protective roles.
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.
