Gap junction-mediated contraction of myoepithelial cells induces the peristaltic transport of sweat in human eccrine glands
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 skin surface. Myoepithelial cells are contrac...
