Sweat production in the isolated eccrine sweat gland of the rat

British Journal of Dermatology, 1984
A method has been developed to isolate a single rat eccrine sweat gland, together with the attached sweat duct, and to induce sweat secretion directly from the gland in vitro. Sweat production was induced using carbachol (2 X 10(-5) M to 3 X 10(-5) M) and methacholine (2 X 10(-5) M) in isolated plantar sweat glands maintained in a suitable environment (

Cytology of eccrine sweat glands in the opossum

American Journal of Anatomy, 1973
AbstractEccrine sweat glands occur only within the glabrous foot and toe‐pad skin of the Virginia opossum, Didelphis virginiana, Kerr. Two distinct types of secretory cells are found in the terminal portion of this gland, i.e., dark and clear cells.

Primate models to study eccrine sweating

American Journal of Primatology, 1988
AbstractThe histochemistry and histology of the eccrine sweat gland in the rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta) are described. The histochemical distribution and localization of enzymes and substrates are very similar to those found in the human; innervation is cholinergic. Active eccrine glands on the general body surface average 136 glands/cm2.

Galanin is a modulator of eccrine sweat gland secretion

Experimental Dermatology, 2013
AbstractThe neuropeptide galanin has been ascribed different roles in modulating physiological functions in the skin. The present study examined the function of galanin in eccrine sweat gland physiology. We demonstrated secretion of galanin by sweat glands in vivo by radioimmunoassay of human sweat (20–192 fmol galanin/ml).

Diseases of Eccrine Sweat Glands

1991
The eccrine sweat glands are independent epidermal adnexal glands, since there is no relationship to the hair-sebaceous gland unit, in contrast to the apocrine sweat glands. They are distributed over the entire body, being particularly numerous on the soles, palms, and forehead. Their number is estimated at 2–3 million.

Diseases of the Eccrine Sweat Glands

2000
The eccrine glands are free-standing adnexal structures that have no relationship to the hair follicle. They are distributed over the entire body, but are especially numerous on the palms, soles and forehead. The total number of eccrine glands is 2–3 million.

ECCRINE SWEAT GLAND CARCINOMA WITH METASTABES

British Journal of Dermatology, 1972
SUMMARY.— A case of metastasizing eccrine sweat gland carcinoma is presented. It developed on the thigh, which is a highly unusual site. The course was consistent with the recognized poor prognosis.

Radiation response of murine eccrine sweat glands

Radiotherapy and Oncology, 1995
Following irradiation of the left-hind feet of mice, we measured the ability of the eccrine glands to secrete sweat following stimulation by pilocarpine. Silicone elastomer impression moulds of the foot pads gave repeatable, detailed localization of sweat ducts by retaining the impression of each emerging sweat droplet.
