Wnt signaling controls whether hair follicle stem cells stay inactive or regenerate hair.
research New Developments in Our Understanding of Acne Pathogenesis and Treatment
We now understand more about what causes acne and this could lead to better, more personalized treatments.
research Homeostatic Control of Sebaceous Glands by Innate Lymphoid Cells Regulates Commensal Bacteria Equilibrium
Innate lymphoid cells help control skin bacteria by regulating sebaceous glands.
research C-Myc Activation in Transgenic Mouse Epidermis Results in Mobilization of Stem Cells and Differentiation of Their Progeny
c-Myc activation in mouse skin increases sebaceous gland growth and affects hair follicle development.
research Epithelially Derived MPZL3 Negatively Regulates Murine and Human Sebaceous Gland Size and Sebocyte Proliferation
MPZL3 protein helps control the size of oil glands and the growth of oil-producing cells in both mice and humans.
research Androgens Affect the Activity of Human Sebocytes in Culture Depending on the Localization of the Sebaceous Glands, and Their Effect Is Antagonized by Spironolactone
Male hormones affect oil-producing skin cells differently based on their body location, and the drug spironolactone can reduce these effects.
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 Behavior of the Two Circulating Androgens Testosterone and DHEA and Their Main Intracellular Metabolites in an Androgen-Sensitive Sebocyte Cell Line
Testosterone affects androgen receptors and lipid storage in cells, while DHEA does not convert to testosterone or affect these receptors in the same way.
research Sebaceous Lipids Are Essential for Water Repulsion, Protection Against UVB-Induced Apoptosis, and Ocular Integrity in Mice
Sebaceous lipids are crucial for keeping skin and eyes healthy in mice.
research Androgens Activate Lipogenesis Through an AKT-Independent mTOR Pathway Stimulation and a Limitation of Autophagy in an Androgen-Sensitive Sebocyte Cell Line
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) increases oil production in skin cells by activating mTOR, and mTOR inhibitors can reduce this effect.
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 Sebocytes’ Makeup: Novel Mechanisms and Concepts in the Physiology of the Human Sebaceous Glands

research The Effects of Extracellular Matrix and Growth Factors on Dermal Papilla Cell Proliferation
Different substances affect hair and skin cell growth in various ways.
research Hirsutism and the Variable Response of the Pilosebaceous Unit to Androgens
Different women's hair and skin glands respond to hormones in varied ways, which can cause unwanted hair growth even with normal hormone levels, and more research is needed to treat this effectively.
research Sebocytes Are the Key Regulators of Androgen Homeostasis in Human Skin
Sebocytes play a key role in controlling androgen levels in human skin.
research Apoptosis May Explain the Pharmacological Mode of Action and Adverse Effects of Isotretinoin, Including Teratogenicity
Isotretinoin's effects and side effects, like birth defects and depression, might be due to it causing cell death in various cells.
research Greasy Hair Against Obesity: TSLP-Induced Sebum Production Reduces Fat
Increasing sebum production might help reduce fat and improve metabolism.
research Studies of the Modulation of MHC Antigen and Cell Adhesion Molecule Expression on Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Different substances affect hair and skin cell growth in various ways, with some promoting and others inhibiting cell proliferation.
research Blimp1+ Cells Generate Functional Mouse Sebaceous Gland Organoids In Vitro
Single Blimp1+ cells can create functional sebaceous gland organoids in the lab.
research Short-Chain Fatty Acids from Cutibacterium Acnes Activate Both a Canonical and Epigenetic Inflammatory Response in Human Sebocytes
Short-chain fatty acids from *Cutibacterium acnes* cause skin inflammation, contributing to acne.
research Vitamin D Increases Expression of Cathelicidin in Cultured Sebocytes
Vitamin D boosts a specific protein in skin cells linked to hair follicles.
research Influence of Substance P on Cultured Sebocytes
Substance P may worsen acne by increasing inflammation, but corticosteroids might help by reducing this effect.
