The antiandrogen 11α-hydroxyprogesterone effectively reduces skin oil and cholesterol when applied to the skin.
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 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 The Effect of Intracutaneous Injections of Micronized Crystalline Suspensions of Nandrolone Phenylpropionate in the Skin of Female Hairless Hamsters
Nandrolone phenylpropionate injections thickened the skin and enlarged oil glands in female hairless hamsters.
research Effect of Nymphaea Caerulea Flower Extract on Improving Scalp Diseases
Nymphaea caerulea flower extract can improve scalp conditions by reducing oil, inflammation, stress hormones, and blood vessel issues.
research Influence of Bovine Milk Oligosaccharides on Sebocyte Lipid Content and Inflammatory Mediators
Cow milk sugars increase fat production and inflammation in skin oil cells.
research Increased Androgen Binding Capacity in Sebaceous Glands in Scalp of Male-Pattern Baldness
Men with male-pattern baldness have more androgen receptors in their scalp's oil glands, which may contribute to hair loss.
research Evaluation of New Pregnane Derivatives as 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
New pregnane derivatives are effective at inhibiting an enzyme linked to hair loss and reducing oil gland activity.
research Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Amino-Pyridines as Androgen Receptor Antagonists for Stimulating Hair Growth and Reducing Sebum Production
A compound made by Pfizer can potentially stimulate hair growth and reduce oil production, making it a good candidate for topical use.
research Effects of Anabolic-Androgenic Steroids on the Pilosebaceous Unit
Anabolic-androgenic steroids can cause skin issues like acne and oily skin by enlarging oil glands and changing skin oils.
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 Morphological and Morphometric Study of the Androgenetic Alopecic Scalp Using Two- and Three-Dimensional Analysis Comparing Regional Differences
The study found that balding scalps have more thin hairs and larger oil glands, which might contribute to skin conditions related to hair loss.
research Aberrant Wnt Signaling Induces Comedo-Like Changes in the Murine Upper Hair Follicle
Overactive Wnt signaling in mouse skin stem cells causes acne-like cysts and shrinking oil glands, which some treatments can partially fix.
research Transglutaminase 2 Deficiency Leads to Lipid Accumulation and Reduced Autophagy in SZ95 Sebocytes
Lack of TG2 increases fat storage and lowers cell cleanup in skin oil cells.
research Interrogating the Gut-Skin Axis for Acne and Sebaceous Gland Health: A Case Study of Nicotinic Acid
Taking nicotinic acid supplements might help with acne by affecting the skin's oil glands, but high doses are needed.
research Identification of Anabolic Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators with Reduced Activities in Reproductive Tissues and Sebaceous Glands
Two new compounds were found to build bone and muscle without affecting reproductive organs and skin oil glands.
research 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 (1R,2S)-4-(2-Cyano-Cyclohexyl-Oxy)-2-Trifluoromethyl-Benzonitrile, A Potent Androgen Receptor Antagonist For Stimulating Hair Growth And Reducing Sebum Production
The compound (1R,2S)-4-(2-Cyano-cyclohexyl-oxy)-2-trifluoromethyl-benzonitrile can stimulate hair growth and reduce oil production when applied topically.
research Effect of Rubbing Application on the Skin Permeation of Active Ingredients from Lotion and Cream
Rubbing skin increases absorption of water-soluble drugs from lotions and creams, but not oil-soluble drugs.
research Sebaceous Gland Atrophy Due to Seborrheic Dermatitis in a Patient with Alopecia: A Potential Pitfall
Skin conditions like seborrheic dermatitis can make it harder to correctly diagnose hair loss because they can cause the oil glands in the skin to shrink.
research Folliculosebaceous Cystic Hamartoma With Spindle Cell Lipomatous And Neural Components
A woman had a unique skin growth with hair follicle, oil glands, fat cells, spindle cells, and nerve fibers.
research Morphogenesis and Renewal of Hair Follicles from Adult Multipotent Stem Cells
Adult mouse skin contains stem cells that can create new hair, skin, and oil glands.
research Smad7-Induced Beta-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
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 A Hypothetical Pathogenesis Model for Androgenic Alopecia: Clarifying the Dihydrotestosterone Paradox and Rate-Limiting Recovery Factors
