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

This study found that sebaceous glands in bald scalp have greater androgen binding affinity and capacity than those in hairy scalp, possibly contributing to the androgenic response seen in male pattern baldness.

This study revealed that deficiency in the enzyme FA2H in mice affected sebaceous gland function, altered sebum composition, and caused cycling alopecia, highlighting FA2H's role in hair follicle homeostasis.

This study demonstrates that sebaceous gland loss is a common early feature in primary scarring alopecia and suggests that inflammation of sebaceous glands or ducts may contribute to follicular damage.

In this study, Far2-/- mice were observed to develop focal alopecia with altered sebaceous gland morphology and lower skin lipid levels compared to wildtype mice.

This review discusses various pathologies involving sebaceous glands, primarily and secondarily, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that sweat gland stem cells primarily maintain sweat gland homeostasis but can trans-differentiate to aid in epidermal healing and regenerate diverse skin structures under certain conditions.

The study suggests that abnormal activation of hair follicle stem cells and Wnt10b/β-catenin signaling may contribute to the development of sebaceous neoplasms.

This review discusses the pathogenesis of common sebaceous gland diseases and their molecular pathways, but it reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, treatment with DHEA induced mild to moderate hyperplasia of sebaceous glands in ovariectomized rats, which was prevented by the antiandrogen Flutamide but not by the antiestrogen EM-800.

This study demonstrates that Puerariae Lobatae Radix may regulate skin lipid metabolism by inhibiting sebaceous gland growth and reducing triglyceride secretion, highlighting its therapeutic potential for sebaceous gland-related conditions.

This study concluded that sebaceous glands are the main pathway for the antiandrogen RU 58841 to permeate the skin, with liposomes enhancing localization in these glands.

This study found that sebaceous glands predominantly exhibit oxidative activity of the type 2 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase isozyme, which is not inhibited by 13-cis retinoic acid.

This review discusses the mechanisms by which isotretinoin and hormonal therapy treat acne through their effects on sebaceous glands, reporting no new clinical results.

This study found a significant reduction in the number and size of sebaceous glands in psoriatic skin lesions, indicating potential involvement in psoriatic alopecia.

This study found that the androgen precursors DHEA and androstenedione stimulated androgen-sensitive parameters in the sebaceous glands of the skin in castrated male hamsters.

This study found that prolonged inhibition of DGAT1 in mice and dogs led to atrophy of sebaceous glands, with mice also experiencing alopecia, suggesting potential skin-related risks for humans using DGAT1 inhibitors.

This study suggests that sweat glands may have an immune privilege similar to hair follicles, and disruptions in this could contribute to autoimmune skin diseases.

This study observed that sebaceous glands were preserved in some patients with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, suggesting early gland loss may not be a key feature of the condition.

In this study, researchers found no hypertrophy in axillary sweat glands of hyperhidrotic patients, with eccrine gland clear cells being the primary site of fluid transport and no evidence of apoeccrine glands.

This study found that reduced cell cohesiveness in eccrine sweat gland outgrowths contributed to delayed wound healing in elderly skin compared to younger skin.

This article reviews the occurrence of ectopic sebaceous glands in hair follicle matrix during hair embryogenesis and reports no new clinical results, indicating unknown pathogenesis and clinical implications.

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 testosterone and 5α-dihydrotestosterone affect human sebocytes differently depending on the skin region, with spironolactone inhibiting their proliferation and counteracting androgen effects in facial sebocytes.

This study found that Cidea is critical for regulating lipid storage and sebum secretion in sebaceous glands, with its deficiency causing hair issues and impaired skin functions in mice.

The researchers reported that nicotinic acid normalized excessive sebaceous lipogenesis without affecting basal lipogenesis and suggested potential anti-acne benefits.

This study found that androgen inactivation pathways in scalp sebaceous glands change with age, specifically noting that AKR1C expression, including AKR1C4 previously thought liver-specific, declines with age and is sex dependent, which could impact hair follicle health during aging.

Hair follicles grow hair and release it through the skin.

The researchers reported that Lrig1 overexpression was observed in 100% of sebaceous carcinoma cases, suggesting it may serve as a potential marker for poorly differentiated sebaceous carcinoma.

This study found that a combination of ciclosporin and Miglyol 812 was effective in treating sebaceous adenitis in rabbits, with significant improvement in skin condition and hair regrowth.
