Establishment and characterization of immortalized sweat gland myoepithelial cells
Scientific Reports, 2022 Sweat glands play an important role in thermoregulation via sweating, and protect human vitals. The reduction in sweating may increase the incidence of hyperthermia.

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

Making Plants Break a Sweat: the Structure, Function, and Evolution of Plant Salt Glands
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 Salt stress is a complex trait that poses a grand challenge in developing new crops better adapted to saline environments. Some plants, called recretohalophytes, that have naturally evolved to secrete excess salts through salt glands, offer an ...

A melanocyte–melanoma precursor niche in sweat glands of volar skin
Pigment Cell & Melanoma Research, 2014 Determination of the niche for early‐stage cancer remains a challenging issue. Melanoma is an aggressive cancer of the melanocyte lineage. Early melanoma cells are often found in the epidermis around sweat ducts of human volar skin, and the skin ...

Long distance runners present upregulated sweating responses than sedentary counterparts.
PLoS ONE, 2014 Relatively few studies have investigated peripheral sweating mechanisms of long-distance runners. The aim of this study was to compare peripheral sweating mechanisms in male long-distance runners, and sedentary counterparts.

Eccrine sweat gland development and sweat secretion [PDF]
Experimental Dermatology, 2015 AbstractEccrine sweat glands help to maintain homoeostasis, primarily by stabilizing body temperature. Derived from embryonic ectoderm, millions of eccrine glands are distributed across human skin and secrete litres of sweat per day. Their easy accessibility has facilitated the start of analyses of their development and function.

Physiology of sweat gland function: The roles of sweating and sweat composition in human health
Temperature, 2019 The purpose of this comprehensive review is to: 1) review the physiology of sweat gland function and mechanisms determining the amount and composition of sweat excreted onto the skin surface; 2) provide an overview of the well-established ...
