research 898 Homeostatic activation of epidermal HSD11b1 affects skin innervation and non-histaminergic itch
HSD11b1 affects skin nerves and increases non-histaminergic itch.
research Isolation and Characterization of Sweat Gland Myoepithelial Cells from Human Skin
Human sweat glands contain stem cells capable of self-renewal and forming different cell types.
research Genotype-phenotype correlation in boys with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia
Boys with less severe EDA mutations in XLHED have milder symptoms and better sweat and hair production.
research Intravital Two-Photon Imaging of Touch Sensory Axon Morphology in Mouse Skin
A new imaging method helps see and study touch nerve endings in mouse skin.
research 1301 STIM1, but not STIM2, is the calcium sensor critical for sweat secretion
STIM1 is essential for sweat secretion.
research Mast cell-5-HT-HTR2A axis involvement in chronic itch induced by SADBE
Targeting the MC-5-HT-HTR2A axis may help treat chronic itching.
research Multipotent Nestin-Positive Stem Cells Reside in the Stroma of Human Eccrine and Apocrine Sweat Glands and Can Be Propagated Robustly In Vitro
Human sweat glands have a type of stem cell that can grow well and turn into different cell types.
research Stage-Specific Embryonic Antigen-4 (SSEA-4) as a Distinguishing Marker between Eccrine and Apocrine Origin of Ducts of Sweat Glands
SSEA-4 can distinguish between eccrine and apocrine sweat gland ducts.
research Sensations Evoked by Microstimulation of Single Mechanoreceptive Afferents Innervating the Human Face and Mouth
Microstimulation of certain facial and mouth nerves can evoke specific sensations, while deeper nerves may require multiple stimulations to affect perception.
research A simple immunofluorescence technique for simultaneous visualization of mast cells and nerve fibers reveals selectivity and hair cycle - dependent changes in mast cell - nerve fiber contacts in murine skin
Mast cell and nerve fiber interactions in mouse skin change with the hair cycle.
research Overexpression of neurotrophin 4 in skin enhances myelinated sensory endings but does not influence sensory neuron number
Increasing neurotrophin 4 in skin boosts nerve endings but not sensory neuron count.
research A transient dermal niche and dual epidermal programs underlie sweat gland development
Sweat gland development involves two unique skin cell programs and a temporary skin environment.
research A subpopulation of itch‐sensing neurons marked by Ret and somatostatin expression
Scientists found a specific group of itch-sensing nerve cells in mice important for feeling itch but not for sensing heat or touch.
research The innervation of the mystacial pad in the adult rat studied by anterograde transport of HRP conjugates
The mystacial pad's innervation in adult rats is more complex than previously thought.
research Steroids excreted by human skin. I. C19-steroids in axillary hair.
Human skin releases different steroids, with some coming from sebaceous glands and others from sweat glands.
research Comparison of brain functional response to mechanical prickling stimuli to the glabrous and hairy skin
Hairy skin feels prickling more intensely than smooth skin.
research Clouston syndrome associated with eccrine syringofibroadenoma
Clouston Syndrome can be linked to rare sweat gland tumors.
research Characterization of X‐linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (XL‐HED) hair and sweat gland phenotypes using phototrichogram analysis and live confocal imaging
People with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia have no sweat ducts and less, thinner hair.
research Three-dimensional reconstructions of mechanosensory end organs suggest a unifying mechanism underlying dynamic, light touch
Dynamic, light touch is sensed through a common mechanism involving Piezo2 channels in sensory axons.
research 50285 Oxytocin receptor is present in keratinocytes near touch and pain sensory neurons
Oxytocin receptors are found in skin cells near touch and pain neurons.
research Potassium channel conductance as a control mechanism in hair follicles
research Acquired Idiopathic Generalized Anhidrosis and Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: Possible Evidence for a Shared Autoimmune Pathogenesis
research 259 Immunohistochemical insight into the association between the collapse of immune privilege in the sweat gland and syringotropic immune cell infiltrates in collagen diseases
The study found that sweat glands normally suppress immune responses, but this is disrupted in certain skin diseases, possibly contributing to their development.
research Neuronal model of tactile allodynia produced by spinal strychnine: effects of excitatory amino acid receptor antagonists and a μ-opiate receptor agonist
Disruption of glycinergic circuits increases pain sensitivity, suggesting new pain treatment options.
research Combined Systemic and Cutaneous Ovalbumin–Aluminum Sensitization Triggers Thermal Hyperalgesia, Spinal Gliosis, and Nociceptive Nerve Fibers Sprouting in Mice
Ovalbumin–aluminum sensitization causes increased pain sensitivity and nerve changes in mice.
research Label Retaining Cells (LRCs) with Myoepithelial Characteristic from the Proximal Acinar Region Define Stem Cells in the Sweat Gland
Sweat gland stem cells help maintain glands, aid wound healing, and can regenerate skin structures.
