This study found that the sebum partition coefficient (K(sebum)) for some drugs differs from the stratum corneum partition coefficient (K(sc)), indicating its importance for targeted drug delivery into hair and sebaceous follicles.

This study introduced a novel nonsteroidal androgen receptor antagonist that effectively controls sebum production in the golden Syrian hamster ear model through targeted follicular delivery.

This article reports no new data; it describes the role of sebum in influencing the skin microbiome and epithelial tissues and discusses its altered composition during transit through the sebaceous duct.

This review discusses the embryology, structure, and function of sebaceous glands and their involvement in skin disorders but reports no novel findings.

This review outlines the factors affecting skin greasiness and sebum production, highlighting measurement challenges but reports no new clinical findings; further research may guide sebosuppressive treatments for acne.

This study found that sebum in sebaceous glands is produced from cell populations derived from peripheral progenitor cells, similarly to hair growth, without direct involvement from other peripheral cells.

This study found that in mice, deleting the keratin 10 gene enhances sebocyte differentiation and increases secretion of sebum and certain lipids without affecting proliferation-associated keratins.

In this study, researchers found that specific enzyme activities in young females' hair follicles were correlated with changes in hair shaft structure and properties, and permanent waving was associated with chemical changes that suggest hair damage.

The T-zone on the face has more androgen receptors and produces more oil than the U-zone.

Androgens and other hormones affect hair growth and skin conditions like acne.

This review explains that dysregulated sebum secretion and composition contribute to acne and impaired skin barriers while highlighting factors like diet and hormones affecting sebaceous activity, and identifies novel molecular targets and model systems for future therapeutic developments.

This review discusses the development, function, and complex roles of sebaceous glands in acne and suggests future acne treatments should target inflammation and lipid production; it reports no new clinical results.

This study describes two new types of dermal keratinous cysts of the eyelids, derived from the pilosebaceous apparatus, each presenting distinct management challenges.

This source reviews a range of sebaceous gland disorders, exploring their clinical characteristics, risk factors, and common treatments, including conditions such as sebaceous gland hyperplasia and acne vulgaris, and highlighting various therapeutic approaches.

This review discusses recent findings related to sebaceous gland conditions, including updated recommendations for screening in sebaceous neoplasms and potential treatments for acne vulgaris, though no new definitive clinical results are reported.

In this study, nanoemulsion formulations were found to significantly enhance the skin retention of the antiseptic agent triclosan, with the optimal mixture being a low surfactant concentration, as demonstrated through quantitative and qualitative analysis using tape-stripping and micro CT scans.

This review discusses various hormones and signaling pathways involved in sebaceous gland homeostasis and their potential impact on acne pathogenesis, but it reports no new experimental findings.

This study highlights the positive roles of sebaceous glands in skin health, including lubrication of hair follicles, delivery of antimicrobial lipids and vitamin E, and involvement in vitamin D conversion, contrasting their traditional association with skin conditions like acne.

This review discusses botulinum toxin's experimental off-label uses in dermatology, highlighting promising results but emphasizing the need for more clinical trials to confirm efficacy and safety.

This article describes community efforts to increase awareness and effective utilization of guava plant resources in Pamulang, aiming to improve local economic welfare through better cultivation practices and innovative processing of guava for health benefits.

In this study, researchers found that cosmetic formulations containing guaraná extract effectively controlled oiliness in oily skin and hair by reducing sebaceous gland activity and lipid content without compromising skin barrier function, making them promising for managing excessive sebum production.

This study found that Bokusoku extract and its compound pentagalloyl glucose inhibited testosterone metabolism and sebum synthesis, suggesting potential therapeutic use for androgen-related acne.

This case report documents the first known instance of an ectopic sebaceous gland and duct within a hair follicle in a 21-year-old male with persistent acneiform eruption.

This study found that local androgen biosynthesis and metabolism in human sebaceous glands play a crucial role in sebum synthesis and secretion.

This study found that applying scalp sebum from young men to rabbit ear canals caused follicular hyperkeratosis, suggesting sebum stimulates the formation of comedones, a key feature in acne vulgaris.

This study demonstrates that human skin is capable of steroid hormone synthesis, but its role in androgenic skin disorders like acne and alopecia is yet to be clarified.

This review highlights the limited research on sebocyte lipid droplets and their proteins despite their role in sebocyte differentiation and potential involvement in skin diseases like acne and alopecia, and reports no new results.

This study reports that during late embryogenesis and early postnatal development, K79-expressing keratinocytes change and die independently of sebaceous glands to form the hair follicle opening, potentially influencing conditions like ingrown hairs or acne.

A rare benign skin tumor showed unusual features of sebaceous and sweat glands, important for correct diagnosis.
