Research
450-480 / 1000+ results research Asebia-2J (Scd1ab2J): A New Allele and a Model for Scarring Alopecia
The absence of functional sebaceous glands causes hair follicle destruction and scarring alopecia.
research Etiology of Cicatricial Alopecias: A Basic Science Point of View
Cicatricial alopecia may be caused by immune attacks on hair follicles, gland issues, or stem cell damage.
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 Hairless Controls Hair Fate Decision via Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling
The Hairless gene is crucial for hair cell development, affecting whether skin cells become hair or skin and oil gland cells.
research The Microanatomy of Human Skin in Aging
Aging skin shows thinner layers, fewer hair follicles, and new biomarkers like increased space between cells and smaller sebaceous glands.
research Local and Systemic Reduction by Topical Finasteride or Flutamide of Hamster Flank Organ Size and Enzyme Activity
Topical finasteride and flutamide reduce gland size and enzyme activity, with flutamide being more potent, potentially treating acne, seborrhea, hirsutism, and androgenic alopecia.
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 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 Actions of Isotretinoin and Etretinate on the Pilosebaceous Unit
Isotretinoin shrinks sebaceous glands without affecting hair or skin color, unlike etretinate.
research Characterization of Hair Follicle Development in Engineered Skin Substitutes
Engineered skin substitutes can grow hair but have limitations like missing sebaceous glands and hair not breaking through the skin naturally.
research Pilosebaceous Follicles: Structure, Biochemistry, and Function
Sebaceous glands play a key role in skin health and conditions like acne.
research Sexual Hormones in Human Skin
Human skin makes sexual hormones that affect hair growth, skin health, and healing; too much can cause acne and hair loss, while treatments can manage these conditions.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, Insulin Resistance, and Obesity: Navigating the Pathophysiologic Labyrinth
Insulin resistance and obesity are key factors in the development and worsening of polycystic ovary syndrome, and lifestyle changes are important for managing it.
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 The Human Sebocyte Culture Model Provides New Insights Into Development and Management of Seborrhoea and Acne
The human sebocyte culture model has improved understanding of oily skin and acne, and how they can be treated.
research Hedgehog Signaling in Skin Development and Cancer
The hedgehog signalling pathway is key in skin development and basal cell carcinoma, offering insights for prevention and treatment.
research Action of Isotretinoin in Acne Rosacea and Gram-Negative Folliculitis
Isotretinoin is highly effective in treating severe acne, rosacea, and gram-negative folliculitis.
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 Epithelial Stem Cells And Implications For Wound Repair
Different types of stem cells in hair follicles play unique roles in wound healing and hair growth, with some stem cells not originating from existing hair follicles but from non-hair follicle cells. WNT signaling and the Lhx2 factor are key in creating new hair follicles.
research The Pathogenesis of Primary Cicatricial Alopecias
The document concludes that more research is needed to better understand and treat primary cicatricial alopecias, and suggests a possible reclassification based on molecular pathways.
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 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 Vitamin D and the Skin: Focus on a Complex Relationship
Vitamin D is important for skin health and may affect conditions like psoriasis and hair loss, but more research is needed to understand its role fully.
research Linking Diet to Acne Metabolomics, Inflammation, and Comedogenesis: An Update
Eating less sugar, milk, and saturated fats and more vegetables and fish may help treat and prevent acne.
research Physiological Changes in the Skin During Pregnancy
Pregnancy can cause skin pigmentation, stretch marks, and changes in hair, nails, and sweat glands, with most resolving after birth.
research Histopathologic Evaluation of Alopecias
The document concludes that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires careful examination of hair and scalp tissue, considering both clinical and microscopic features.
