Exploring the mechanisms underpinning sweating: the development of a specialized ventilated capsule for use with intradermal microdialysis

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2016
Many studies have aimed to identify the controllers of sweating using ventilated capsules with intradermal microdialysis. It is unclear, however, if the surface area covered by the capsule influences the observed response as a result of differences in ...

Eccrine sweat gland development and sweat secretion [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental 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.

The Physiology of Thermoregulation in Exercise: A Brief Review

open access: yesSoutheastern European Medical Journal, 2023
During physical exercise, the production of heat in the working skeletal muscles increases, imposing heat stress on the body. Thermoregulatory mechanisms induce adjustments of cutaneous vascular conductance and thus skin blood flow (SkBF), sweating rate,
