research An Updated Review of the Sebaceous Gland and Its Role in Health and Diseases Part 1: Embryology, Evolution, Structure, and Function of Sebaceous Glands
Sebaceous glands in our skin, developing during pregnancy and active in puberty, produce sebum for skin lubrication, temperature control, and fighting germs, also help in hormone regulation, and their dysfunction can cause conditions like acne and hair loss.
research Types I and II Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Keratins are crucial for cell structure, growth, and disease risk.
research Self-Consistent Field Theory for the Interactions Between Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Keratin filaments' elasticity is influenced by their terminal domains and surrounding medium.
research Obesity and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Implications for Pathogenesis and Novel Management Strategies
Obesity worsens PCOS symptoms, and PCOS may lead to more weight gain; managing both requires a holistic approach that includes mental health.
research Sostdc1 Defines the Size and Number of Skin Appendage Placodes
Sostdc1 controls the size and number of hair and mammary gland structures.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: Traditional Cardiovascular Risk Factors, Metabolic Syndrome, and Component Traits Among Nigerian Adults
Hair loss in adults is linked to heart disease risk factors like unhealthy blood fats, lack of exercise, and alcohol use. It's also slightly more common in people with metabolic syndrome. As people age, hair loss gets worse. In men, severe hair loss is tied to high blood pressure and a larger waist. In women, it's tied to higher body weight. People with hair loss should be checked for unhealthy blood fats and advised to avoid alcohol and inactivity.
research Acute Localized Exanthematous Pustulosis Due to Metronidazole
A man developed a skin reaction from metronidazole, which improved after stopping the drug and starting steroids.
research An Expert System for Clinical Risk Assessment of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Under Uncertainty
The document concludes that the new expert system can assess the risk of PCOS effectively despite uncertainties in diagnosis.
research Hair Physiology and Grooming
Different hair care methods affect hair health and appearance, and there are many ways to camouflage hair loss.
research Damaged Hair Retrieval with Ceramide-Rich Liposomes
Ceramide-rich liposomes can effectively repair and strengthen damaged hair.
research Keratin 71 Mutations: From Water Dogs to Woolly Hair

research Comparative Characterization of Human Meibomian Glands, Free Sebaceous Glands, and Hair-Associated Sebaceous Glands Based on Biomarkers, Analysis of Secretion Composition, and Gland Morphology
Meibomian glands are highly specialized and differ significantly from other sebaceous glands in structure and function.
research A Prospective Study of Dermoscopic and Ultrastructural Features of Vitiligo-Associated Leukotrichia
The study found that white hair in vitiligo has specific patterns and structures, which vary with the stage of the disease and may be similar to another hair condition.
research Establishment of a Culture Model for the Prolonged Maintenance of Chicken Feather Follicles Structure In Vitro
Scientists have developed a method to keep chicken feather follicles alive and structurally intact in a lab for up to a week.
research Chronic Administration of Minoxidil Protects Elastic Fibers and Stimulates Their Neosynthesis with Improvement of the Aorta Mechanics in Mice
Minoxidil helps protect and rebuild elastic fibers in arteries, improving artery function, especially in older females.
research Reimagining Hair Science: A New Approach to Classify Curly Hair Phenotypes via New Quantitative Geometrical and Structural Mechanical Parameters
A new system for classifying curly hair types using precise measurements can improve hair care products and cultural inclusion.
research Characterization of the Promoter Regions of Two Sheep Keratin-Associated Protein Genes for Hair Cortex-Specific Expression
The KRTAP11-1 gene promoter is crucial for specific expression in sheep wool cortex.
research Live Imaging of Stem Cell and Progeny Behavior in Physiological Hair-Follicle Regeneration
Scientists used a special imaging technique to observe that hair follicle regeneration involves cell division and structural changes, mostly in the lower part of the follicle, and that the dermal papilla at the base is crucial for regrowth.
research Cosmetic Approach for Healthy and Damaged Hair
Cosmetic procedures can harm hair, but damage can be minimized with knowledge and care; however, once hair is damaged, it cannot be reliably repaired.
research Selective Induction of Apoptosis in the Hamster Flank Sebaceous Gland Organ by a Topical Liposome 5-Alpha-Reductase Inhibitor: A Treatment Strategy for Acne
A topical treatment safely and effectively reduced acne by causing targeted cell death in sebaceous glands without side effects.
research Lipid Modulation and Systemic Inflammation
Dietary lipids affect inflammation and are crucial for normal cell function and immune health.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cell Fate Is Dependent on Chromatin Remodeling Capacity Following Low-Dose Radiation
Low-dose radiation affects hair stem cell function and survival by changing their genetic material's structure.
research Commentary on Google Trends as a Tool for Evaluating Public Interest in Facial Cosmetic Procedures
