Impacts of Skin Eccrine Glands on the Measured Values of Transepidermal Water Loss. [PDF]

Cureus, 2022
Transepidermal water loss (TEWL) is widely used to assess and quantify skin insensible water loss to assess skin’s barrier function integrity. Low TEWL values are normally indicative of intact skin and a healthy functional barrier, whereas an increased ...

Gap junction-mediated contraction of myoepithelial cells induces the peristaltic transport of sweat in human eccrine glands [PDF]

Communications Biology, 2023
Eccrine sweat glands play an essential role in regulating body temperature. Sweat is produced in the coiled secretory portion of the gland, which is surrounded by obliquely aligned myoepithelial cells; the sweat is then peristaltically transported to the

Determination of the Maximum Rate of Eccrine Sweat Glands’ Ion Reabsorption Using the Galvanic Skin Conductance to Local Sweat Rate Relationship [PDF]

European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2015
Purpose The purpose of the present study was to develop and describe a simple method to evaluate the rate of ion reabsorption of eccrine sweat glands in human using the measurement of galvanic skin conductance (GSC) and local sweating rate (SR).

Differential antigen expression between human apocrine sweat glands and eccrine sweat glands [PDF]

European Journal of Histochemistry, 2022
Bromhidrosis has a great negative impact on personal occupation and social psychology. It is not yet clear whether bromhidrosis is caused by apocrine sweat glands or the co-action of apocrine sweat glands and eccrine sweat glands. To distinguish between

The protease corin regulates electrolyte homeostasis in eccrine sweat glands.

PLoS Biology, 2021
Sweating is a basic skin function in body temperature control. In sweat glands, salt excretion and reabsorption are regulated to avoid electrolyte imbalance. To date, the mechanism underlying such regulation is not fully understood.

Therapy-Resistant, Spontaneously Remitting Generalized Neutrophilic Eccrine Hidradenitis in a Healthy Patient Decreases the Expression of Dermcidin in Affected Eccrine Glands

Case Reports in Dermatology, 2011
We describe a healthy 69-year-old Japanese man with generalized neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis (NEH). He visited our outpatient clinic with a 15-year history of disseminated pruritic papules on his trunk and extremities; the eruptions, however, were ...

Verrucous Eccrine Angiomatous Hamartoma: A Case Report [PDF]

Case Reports in Dermatology
Eccrine angiomatous hamartoma (EAH) is a rare malformation presenting with the proliferation of eccrine glands and other dermal structures. It typically presents as a solitary lesion on extremities that appears at birth or during childhood. It

Cutaneous eccrine glands of the foot pads of the rock hyrax (Procavia capensis, Hyracoidea, mammalia) [PDF]

Cells Tissues Organs, 2002
In order to find correlations between skin gland morphology and specific ethological features, the cutaneous glands of the foot pads of Procavia capensis were studied by histological and various histochemical methods and by electron microscopy.

Nonneoplastic disorders of the eccrine glands.

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1998
Eccrine glands are uniquely susceptible to a variety of pathologic processes. Alteration in the rate of sweat secretion manifests as hypohidrosis and hyperhidrosis. Obstruction of the eccrine duct leads to miliaria. The excretion of drugs into eccrine sweat may be a contributory factor in neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis (NEH), syringosquamous ...

Histochemical analysis of glycoconjugates in the eccrine glands of the raccoon digital pads

European Journal of Histochemistry, 2009
The distribution and selectivity of complex carbohydrates in the eccrine glands of the digital pads in the North American raccoon (Procyon lotor) were studied using light and electron microscopic histochemical methods, particularly lectin histochemistry.
