Here, we used PAC1R knockout (KO) mice and wild-type (WT) mice to observe changes in AQP5 localization and gene expression in sweat glands by PACAP treatment. Immunohistochemistry revealed that PACAP promoted the translocation of AQP5 to the lumen side in the eccrine gland via PAC...
regulated by the sympathetic and parasympathetic branches of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS). The ANS regulates physiological signals such as muscle tension, respiration, facial expressions, pupillary changes, articulation, tone of voice, posture, gesture, skin temperature or activity of sweat glands...

Typically, no difference is observed in the total number of active sweat glands between females and males (Szabo1967; Bar-Or et al.1968; Knip1969). Therefore, the variance in sweat response is not attributed to the number of sweat glands but rather to differences in sweat gland output. High...
sweat glands, accessory structures to the skin, secrete water, salt, and other substances to cool the body when it becomes warm. Even when the body does not appear to be noticeably sweating, approximately 500 mL of sweat (insensible perspiration) are secreted a day. If the body becomes ...
Eccrine sweat glands:These are found in almost every skin region and produce a secretion of water and sodium chloride. Apocrine sweat gland:These are found in the axillary and pubic regions. These glands are active only after puberty.
Gland conditions:The glands in the integumentary system can develop chronic conditions.Seborrheic dermatitisis a condition where the sebaceous glands around hair follicles of the scalp produce excess sebum. This leads to oily build-up on the scalp, causing greasy scales or dandruff. Sweat glands can...
What are the location and function of the major and micro structures involved in the urinary or renal system? (a) What are the different types of sweat glands? (b) What are the functions of each? What are the internal parts of a kidney and what do they d...

It lines the oral cavity, esophagus, larynx, vagina and anal canal, and the outer layer of the cornea. Stratified cuboidal epithelium - also functions as a protective tissue layer. It lines the excretory ducts of the sweat glands, large ducts of excretory glands, the anorectal junction and ...
