DHT may reduce inflammation caused by certain bacteria in skin cells.
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 Y27632 Promotes Proliferation via EGFR Signaling in a Newly Isolated and Characterized Human Primary Sebocyte Cell Line
Y27632 increases cell growth through EGFR signaling, not ROCK1/2.
research Transglutaminase 2 Is a Potential Regulator of Sebocyte Maturation
Transglutaminase 2 may control sebocyte maturation and lipid metabolism.
research The Endocannabinoid Tone Regulates Human Sebocyte Biology
The endocannabinoid system affects oil production and inflammation in skin cells.
research MEK and BRAF Inhibitors Augment the Production and Accumulation of Sebum in Hamster Sebocytes
MEK and BRAF inhibitors increase sebum production and accumulation, which could cause acne-like side effects.
research Sebum Free Fatty Acids Enhance the Innate Immune Defense of Human Sebocytes by Upregulating Beta-Defensin-2 Expression
Free fatty acids in sebum boost skin's defense against acne by increasing antimicrobial peptides.
research Inhibition of Rat 5α-Reductase Activity and Testosterone-Induced Sebum Synthesis in Hamster Sebocytes by an Extract of Quercus Acutissima Cortex
An extract from Quercus acutissima bark was found to reduce sebum production and block an enzyme linked to acne.
research Inhibition of 5α-Reductase Activity in SZ95 Sebocytes and HaCaT Keratinocytes In Vitro
The substance MK386 effectively blocked testosterone conversion and reduced cell growth in certain skin cells, but inhibiting 5α-reductase alone may not greatly improve acne.
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 Distribution of Quantum Dot Nanoparticles That Penetrate Skin and Distinction of Combined Osmium Tetroxide in Electron Microscopic Analysis
Quantum dot nanoparticles can penetrate skin and reach sebocytes through hair follicles.

c-Myc activation in mouse skin increases sebaceous gland growth and affects hair follicle development.
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 The Human Skin as a Hormone Target and an Endocrine Gland
Human skin acts like a hormone-producing organ, making and managing various hormones important for skin and hair health.
research Sex Hormones and Acne: The Role of the Skin as an Endocrine Organ
Sex hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in causing acne.
