apocrine & merocrine sweat glands

2 types of sweat (sudoriferous) glands

merocrine

__________ sweat glands produce a thin, watery secretion called sweat (sensible perspiration)

hair follicles

_________ __________ form from hair buds that differentiate into hair bulbs, hair papillae, & sebaceous glands

bronzing

skin appears golden-brown, copper, or bronze in color - glucocorticoid hormone deficiency in the adrenal cortex; addison disease

squamous cell carcinoma

- arises from keratinocytes of stratum spinosum - lesions usually appear on scalp, ears, lower lip, or back of hand - early lesions are raised, reddened, scaly; later lesions form concave ulcers with elevated edges - treated by early detection & surgical removal of lesion - may metastasize to other parts of the body

basal cell carcinoma

- most common type of skin cancer - least dangerous type because it seldom metastasizes - originates in stratum basale - 1st appears as small, shiny elevation that enlarges & develops central depression with pearly edge - usually occurs on face - treated by surgical removal of lesion

malignant melanoma

- most deadly type of skin cancer due to aggressive growth & metastasis - arises from melanocytes, usually in a preexisting mole - individuals at increased risk include those who have severe sunburns, especially as children - characterized by change in mole diameter, color, shape of border, & symmetry - survival rates improved by early detection & surgical removal of lesion - advanced cases (metastasis of disease) are difficult to cure & are treated with chemotherapy, interferon therapy, & radiation therapy

keratinocytes, melanocytes, tactile cells, & epidermal dendritic cells

4 distinct cell types occur within the epidermis:

A = one-half of a mole or birthmark does not match other B = edges are notched, irregular, blurred, or ragged C = color is not uniform; differing shades (usually brown/black, sometimes patches of white/blue/red) D = affected area is larger than 6 mm or is growing E = change in the size, shape, or color of mole; or change in symptoms, how the mole feels (itchy/tender), or what happens on the surface of a mole (especially bleeding)
