The oral contraceptive ethinylestradiol/chlormadinone acetate is effective in reducing acne and improving other skin conditions related to high androgen levels.
research Non-Invasive Human Skin Transcriptome Analysis Using mRNA in Skin Surface Lipids
A new non-invasive method can analyze skin mRNA to understand skin diseases better.
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 Serum Irisin: A Prognostic Marker for Severe Acne Vulgaris
Lower irisin levels in the blood may indicate more severe acne.
research Overexpression of Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1α in Hidradenitis Suppurativa: The Link Between Deviated Immunity and Metabolism
Increased HIF-1α is linked to the inflammation and severity of hidradenitis suppurativa, suggesting treatments that lower HIF-1α could help.
research Hair Follicle Targeting with Nanoparticles
Nanoparticles can be used to deliver drugs to hair follicles, potentially improving treatments for conditions like acne and alopecia, and could also be used for vaccine delivery and gene therapy.
research Treatment of Cultured Sebocytes with an EGFR Inhibitor Does Not Lead to Significant Upregulation of Inflammatory Biomarkers
Blocking EGFR in skin cells doesn't majorly increase inflammation markers.
research Effects of SM-215 on Hair Growth by Hair Follicle Stimulation
SM-215 promotes hair growth by improving the environment around hair follicles.
research Endocannabinoid-Like Molecule Oleoylethanolamide Promotes Sebaceous Lipid Synthesis
Oleoylethanolamide (OEA) safely boosts fat production in skin cells and may help treat dry skin and reduce inflammation.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Use of Oral Contraceptives in the Management of Acne
Birth control pills with low-dose estrogen and antiandrogenic progestins can effectively treat acne.
research Distinctive Acne Entities
Acne can appear or persist in adulthood due to hormonal changes, external factors, or substance use, and requires appropriate treatment.
research Neuroendocrine Controls of Keratin Expression in Human Skin
Neurohormones help control skin health and could treat skin disorders.
research Claudin-1 and Claudin-3 Maintain Proper Hair Follicle Structure and Regulate Telogen Effluvium
Claudin-1 and Claudin-3 are crucial for keeping hair follicle structure and preventing a type of hair loss called telogen effluvium.
research Nicotinic Acid Suppresses Sebaceous Lipid Synthesis of Human Sebocytes via Activating Hydroxycarboxylic Acid Receptor 2 (HCA2)
Nicotinic acid reduces excessive oil production in skin cells by activating a specific receptor, which could help treat acne.
research Orchestrated Cytotoxic and Skin Migratory Ability Lacking Self-Tolerance: Circulating γδT-Cells May Promote Alopecia Areata
