Introduction

The secretory glands associated with the integumentary system have similar embryonic origins and mechanisms of development, though are specialised by their locations and secretions. A key process and feature of all gland development is an epithelial-mesenchymal interaction(s). Gland secretion can also be regulated by a number of different mechanisms, including endocrine changes postnatally at puberty and during pregnancy.

The mammary gland development is covered in detail on a separate notes page.

Some Recent Findings

  • Characterization of the correlation between ages at entry into breast and pubic hair development [1] "Among 3938 participants, estimated mean ages at entry into Tanner stage 2 for breast and pubic hair development were 10.19 and 10.95, respectively."

Development of Glands

  • 2 main types - sweat and sebaceous
  • both ectodermal in origin
  • form as ingrowth of ectoderm into the mesoderm

Sweat Gland

  • mostly eccrine some apocrine
  • apocrine in axilla, pubic and nipple regions
    • see also mammary gland development

Sebaceous Gland

  • associated with hair development
  • except plans penis and labia minora
  • these glands secrete vernix


Vernix Caseosa

  • (Latin, vernix caseosa = varnish , cheese-like)
  • covers fetal skin- secretion from sebaceous glands
  • protects skin from extraembryonic fluids amnion, urine
  • slippery and helps with parturition
