  • Title: Intercellular canaliculi in eccrine sweat glands: an immunoperoxidase study.
    Author: Graham RM, McKee PH, Chapman DV, Richardson TC, Stokoe MR, Heyderman E.
    Journal: Br J Dermatol; 1985 Apr; 112(4):397-403. PubMed ID: 3888245.
    Abstract:
    Using an indirect immunoperoxidase technique, both epithelial membrane antigen and carcinoembryonic antigen were identified within the ducts and secretory coils of the eccrine sweat gland. Antibodies to epithelial membrane antigen stained the intercellular canaliculi of the secretory coils, as did those antisera to CEA which showed activity against normal cross-reacting antigen (CEX, NCA). Those without such activity showed minimal or no staining of intercellular canaliculi. There is a difference in antigenic expression between the acinar cells and their intercellular canaliculi, and the cells of eccrine ducts.
