Sweat gland development involves two unique skin cell programs and a temporary skin environment.

Increasing neurotrophin 4 in skin boosts nerve endings but not sensory neuron count.

People with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia have no sweat ducts and less, thinner hair.

A new type of nerve cell involved in itch perception was discovered.

HSD11b1 affects skin nerves and increases non-histaminergic itch.

Human skin releases different steroids, with some coming from sebaceous glands and others from sweat glands.

Microstimulation of certain facial and mouth nerves can evoke specific sensations, while deeper nerves may require multiple stimulations to affect perception.

The mystacial pad's innervation in adult rats is more complex than previously thought.

The sympathetic nervous system is linked to scalp hair loss.

Different botulinum toxin products and concentrations can effectively reduce sweating, itching, bladder pressure, hair loss, and muscle spasms.

Human sweat glands have a type of stem cell that can grow well and turn into different cell types.

Dynamic, light touch is sensed through a common mechanism involving Piezo2 channels in sensory axons.

Ovalbumin–aluminum sensitization causes increased pain sensitivity and nerve changes in mice.

Mast cell and nerve fiber interactions in mouse skin change with the hair cycle.

Avoiding exposure to certain grasses can prevent skin allergies, highlighting the importance of proper sanitation.

Certain skin drugs and topical agents, including some natural extracts and fragrances, can cause allergic reactions. Some hair dyes and extensions, as well as minoxidil, a hair growth treatment, can also cause allergies. Botulinum toxin A can effectively reduce sweat but may have temporary side effects.

Hair removal with intense pulsed light can cause rare skin lesions that are hard to fully treat.

Blocking GABA(A) receptors increases neuron sensitivity, showing GABA and glycine have different roles in pain.

Oxytocin receptors are found in skin cells near touch and pain neurons.

A runner developed tangled armpit hairs from shirt friction, preventable by shaving or wearing smooth shirts.

Clouston Syndrome can be linked to rare sweat gland tumors.

Light can turn on hair growth cells through a nerve path starting in the eyes.

C-tactile nerves are sensitive to hair movement.

Mesenchymal stiffness affects sweat gland cell development.

The document suggests that blocking sweat glands with antiperspirants might allow skin-generated hormones to be absorbed, possibly increasing breast and prostate cancer risk.

Scalp apocrine glands may help remove waste and balance electrolytes, but their role is not fully understood.

Skin and hair cells release serotonin and histamine naturally, which could help improve skin health.

SK2 channels help control sensory signals in rat muscle spindles and hair follicles.
