research Beyond acne: Current aspects of sebaceous gland biology and function

97 citations , September 2016 in “Reviews in Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders”

This review summarizes recent multidisciplinary advances in sebaceous gland research and highlights potential novel therapeutic strategies for skin diseases, but it reports no new clinical results.

research Development and homeostasis of the sebaceous gland

107 citations , August 2012 in “Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology”

This review discusses the role of signaling networks in sebaceous gland development and disorders, highlighting recent insights from mouse models and cell line studies, but reports no new experimental results.

BLIMP1 Is Required for Postnatal Epidermal Homeostasis but Does Not Define a Sebaceous Gland Progenitor Under Steady-State Conditions

research BLIMP1 Is Required for Postnatal Epidermal Homeostasis but Does Not Define a Sebaceous Gland Progenitor under Steady-State Conditions

50 citations , September 2014 in “Stem cell reports”

In this study, BLIMP1 was found to function in terminally differentiated epidermal cells to maintain homeostasis, rather than defining a sebocyte progenitor population.

research Neuregulin3 alters cell fate in the epidermis and mammary gland

39 citations , September 2007 in “BMC developmental biology”

This study found that Neuregulin3 can influence the development and differentiation of mammary glands and epidermal features in mice, potentially by inducing c-Myc and altering cell proliferation and adhesion.

Tp63-Expressing Adult Epithelial Stem Cells Cross Lineage Boundaries Revealing Latent Hairy Skin Competence

research Tp63-expressing adult epithelial stem cells cross lineages boundaries revealing latent hairy skin competence

8 citations , November 2020 in “Nature Communications”

This study demonstrates that Tp63-expressing epithelial stem cells from non-skin tissues can respond to skin morphogenetic signals and contribute to the formation of hair follicles, sebaceous glands, and epidermis.

community Everything you ever wanted to know about Pelage Pharma's PP405: how it works and what to expect

126 upvotes 2 months ago

PP405 may encourage earlier hair growth and slightly increase visible hair count but does not reverse hair follicle miniaturization in male pattern baldness. It does not address damage to the dermal papilla or broken Wnt signaling.

community Why do we have head hair in first place if we evolved to start losing it in some cases as soon as puberty hits

140 upvotes 11 months ago

Hair loss is influenced by genetics and sensitivity to hormones like DHT. Treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride are commonly used, and baldness persists as it doesn't affect reproductive success.

community Is this real chat? Finasteride -> fountain of youth and longevity drug?

559 upvotes 1 year ago

Finasteride is discussed as a hair loss treatment with benefits like reduced prostate enlargement and skin aging, but it is not seen as a "fountain of youth." Users report mixed experiences, including side effects like decreased libido and dry eyes.

community possible treatment of AGA and change in sebaceous gland condition and oil production using sulfur soap

in Research/Science 4 upvotes 11 months ago

Sulfur soap may help with hair thickening and reducing scalp inflammation, but it can cause dryness. Nizoral, containing ketoconazole, is noted for its potential to reduce seborrheic dermatitis but may also cause scalp dryness and hair loss.

community Hot weather causing hair shedding?

3 upvotes 9 months ago

Hot weather can increase hair shedding, possibly due to dehydration and active sebaceous glands. Using shampoos with salicylic acid or zinc pyrithione may help; daily anti-inflammatory use is not recommended.
