research Cellular Heterogeneity and Plasticity of Skin Epithelial Cells in Wound Healing and Tumorigenesis
Skin cells show flexibility in healing wounds and forming tumors, with potential for treating hair disorders and chronic ulcers.
research The Epithelial Stem Cell Niche in Skin
Skin's epithelial stem cells are crucial for repair and maintenance, and understanding them could improve treatments for skin problems.
research Hormones and the Pilosebaceous Unit
Hormones significantly affect hair and oil gland function in the skin, and more research is needed on skin-related hormone disorders.
research Pilosebaceous Physiology in Relation to Hirsutism and Acne
Male hormones are important for hair and oil gland development and can cause conditions like excessive hair growth and acne.
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 Activity of Type 1 5α-Reductase Is Greater in the Follicular Infrainfundibulum Compared with the Epidermis
The enzyme type 1 5α-reductase is more active in the hair follicle's lower part than in the skin's outer layer.
research Pharmacological Inhibition of DGAT1 Induces Sebaceous Gland Atrophy in Mouse and Dog Skin While Overt Alopecia Is Restricted to the Mouse
Blocking DGAT1 reduces oil gland size in mice and dogs, but only mice experience hair loss.
research Heparan Sulfate Regulates Hair Follicle and Sebaceous Gland Morphogenesis and Homeostasis
Heparan sulfate is important for hair growth, preventing new hair formation in mature skin, and controlling oil gland development.
research Androgenic Effect of Testosterone and Its Metabolites in Relation to Their Biotransformation in the Skin
Testosterone and some of its forms can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in skin.
research Adrenal Steroid Precursors Exert Potent Androgenic Action in the Hamster Sebaceous Glands of Flank Organs and Ears
Certain adrenal hormones can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in hamster skin, similar to male hormones.
research Development and Homeostasis of the Sebaceous Gland
The document concludes that understanding the sebaceous gland's development and function is key to addressing related skin diseases and aging effects.
research BLIMP1 Is Required for Postnatal Epidermal Homeostasis but Does Not Define a Sebaceous Gland Progenitor Under Steady-State Conditions
BLIMP1 is essential for skin maintenance but not for defining sebaceous gland progenitors.
research C/EBPα and C/EBPβ Are Required for Sebocyte Differentiation and Stratified Squamous Differentiation in Adult Mouse Skin
C/EBPalpha and C/EBPbeta are crucial for normal skin and oil gland cell development in adult mice.
research The Lysosomal Protease Cathepsin L Is an Important Regulator of Keratinocyte and Melanocyte Differentiation During Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Cycling
Cathepsin L is essential for normal hair growth and development.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cells: Walking the Maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research Strategic Targets in Acne: The Comedone Switch in Question
The best way to treat acne is to prevent healthy skin glands from turning into acne lesions by controlling the triggers early on.
research TGFβ Signaling Regulates Lipogenesis in Human Sebaceous Gland Cells
TGFβ signaling prevents sebaceous gland cells from producing fats.
research Stem Cells and Alopecia: A Review of Pathogenesis
Damaged hair follicle stem cells can cause permanent hair loss, but understanding their role could lead to new treatments.
research Bone Morphogenetic Protein Signaling Regulates Postnatal Hair Follicle Differentiation and Cycling
Blocking BMP signaling causes hair loss and disrupts hair growth cycles.
research Developing the Concept of 'Feel Ezzy Hair Oil': Explore the Nature of Hair Oil with Respect to Personal Well-Being
The herbal hair oil was more effective at reducing hair fall than coconut oil.
research An Overview of Herbal Ingredients with Anti-Dandruff Activity in Shampoo Formulations
