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

open access: yesCommunications 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

Impact of Brahman genetics on skin histology characteristics with implications for heat tolerance in cattle

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2023
Cattle lose heat predominantly through cutaneous evaporation at the skin-hair coat interface when experiencing heat stress. Sweating ability, sweat gland properties, and hair coat properties are a few of the many variables determining the efficacy of ...

Frey’s syndrome - unusually long delayed clinical onset post-parotidectomy: a case report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Frey’s syndrome is a complication of parotidectomy that is thought to occur as a result of aberrant regeneration of the postganglionic parasympathetic nerve fibres supplying the parotid gland to severed postganglionic sympathetic fibres which innervate ...

Comparison of outcomes of two methods of axillary osmidrosis surgery: Subdermal excision versus liposuction combined with diode laser ablation [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, 2020
Background Patients with axillary osmidrosis suffer from a foul odor due to the bacterial decomposition of apocrine gland secretions. This condition is stressful, especially for teenaged students and young working people in Korea, who seek a reliable ...

Eccrine sweat gland carcinoma

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2007
INTRODUCTIONThe differential diagnosis among the most frequent skin tumors, base-cell carcinoma and squamous-cell carcinoma, and the rare types, the sweat gland carci-nomas, is fundamental for the early diag-nosis and prognosis of a patient. These are classified as eccrine and apocrine, and the eccrine is the most common type.
