Sweat gland. Fluorescent deconvolution light micrograph of a section through a dermal duct from a sweat gland,showing beta defensin peptides (red). Sweat glands are a form of eccrine gland,which are composed of an intraepidermal spiral duct,the 'acrosyringium'; a dermal duct,comprising a straight and coiled portion; and a secretory tubule,coiled deep in the dermis or hypodermis.
