Sweat gland in skin
Sweat gland in skin. Light micrograph of a section through the dermis of the skin showing a sweat gland. The gland is composed of a secretory portion (upper left) and several excretory ducts (bottom left to top right). The dermis contains numerous sweat glands, which discharge a watery secretion onto the surface of the skin in order to lower the body temperature. Surrounding the secretory portion are myoepithelial cells (solid purple lines). These contract to expel sweat from the secretory portion into the ducts. Trichrome blue stain. Magnification unknown

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate structure of a sweat gland in the skin. Through a light micrograph, we are able to observe a section through the dermis, revealing the complexity and functionality of this vital component of our body. The sweat gland is composed of two main parts: the secretory portion and several excretory ducts. The secretory portion can be seen in the upper left corner, while the ducts extend diagonally from bottom left to top right. These glands are responsible for maintaining our body temperature by discharging a watery secretion onto the surface of our skin. Surrounding the secretory portion are myoepithelial cells, depicted as solid purple lines. These remarkable cells contract when stimulated, expelling sweat from the secretory portion into the ducts for eventual release on our skin's surface. Through trichrome blue staining, we gain insight into not only its anatomical features but also its healthy state. This histological image provides valuable information about homeostasis and temperature regulation within our bodies. Science Photo Library continues to amaze us with their ability to capture such detailed images that allow us to appreciate both beauty and function within human anatomy.
