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

The protease corin regulates electrolyte homeostasis in eccrine sweat glands.
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.

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

Transcriptome Profiling of Anhidrotic Eccrine Sweat Glands Reveals that Olfactory Receptors on Eccrine Sweat Glands Regulate Perspiration in a Ligand-Dependent Manner [PDF]
Sweat maintains systemic homeostasis in humans. Although sweating disorders may cause multifaceted health problems, therapeutic options for sweat disorders have not yet been established. To gain new insight into the mechanism underlying the regulation of

Differential Innervation of Secretory Coils and Ducts in Human Eccrine Sweat Glands
Background: Previous studies demonstrate that eccrine sweat glands are innervated by both cholinergic and adrenergic nerves. However, it is still unknown whether the secretory coils and ducts of eccrine sweat glands are equally innervated by the ...

Nonneoplastic disorders of the eccrine glands.
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.

Poroid hidradenoma of the eyelid: a case report [PDF]
BackgroundPoroid hidradenoma (PH) is a rare, benign tumor arising from eccrine sweat glands. It typically presents as a painless and slow-growing subcutaneous lesion in individuals in their sixth to seventh decades of life.
