Histochemical and cytochemical techniques greatly contributed the elucidation of the ionic mechanism of sweat secretion. X-ray microanalysis using freeze-dried cryosections clarified the level of Na, K, and Cl in each secretory cell of the human sweat gland. Enzyme cytochemistry, immunohistochemistry ...
sweat gland, either of two types of secretory skin glands occurring only in mammals. Theeccrine sweat gland, which is controlled by thesympathetic nervous system, regulates body temperature. When internal temperature rises, the eccrine glandssecretewater to the skin surface, where heat is removed by...

The basic mechanisms of sweat gland function and an updated review of some relatively common disorders of sweat secretion, are presented. Although sweat secretion and ductal absorption are basically biophysical and biologic cellular processes, a detailed description of the basic biophysical principles of ...
The presence of galanin and galanin binding sites in sweat gland has been demonstrated previously. In order to investigate whether galanin can influence sweat gland function, we compared sweating induced in footpads of wild type and galanin knockout mice by cholinergic and thermal stimulation using th...
Themajority of sweat glandsare eccrine. They are long, unbranched, tubular structures with a highly coiledsecretory portionsituated deep in the dermis. A narrowerductemerges from the gland and it opens via a pore on the skin surface.
Mammary gland, milk-producing gland characteristic of all female mammals and present in a rudimentary and generally nonfunctional form in males. Mammary glands are regulated by the endocrine system and become functional in response to the hormonal change
Peripheral sweat gland function was assessed using iontophoresis before and after heat acclimation. Before heat acclimation, the -induced sweat rate of the control and -injected forearms did not differ (0.65 +/- 0.20 vs. 0.66 +/- 0.22 mg x cm(-2) x min(-1)). However, following heat ...
Sweat Pore Function There are two types of sweat glands in the skin: eccrine and apocrine. These glands are distributed along the body. Eccrine glands open directly onto the surface of the skin through the sweat pore, while the apocrine gland opens into the hair follicle, leading to the surf...
