Abstract
Objective To examine the number of axillary sweat glands and the expression of Na+ K+ Cl+ cotransporter isoform1(NKCC1) in axillary sweat glands of palmar hyperhidrosis patients with axillary hyperhidrosis, palmar hyperhidrosis patients and non-hyperhidrosis patients, to investigate its relationship with the pathogenesis of palmar hyperhidrosis. Methods Axillary glands were gained in 27 cases of palmar hyperhidrosis with axillary hyperhidrosis, 11 cases of palmar hyperhidrosis and 8 cases of non-hyperhidrosis as control group. The number of axillary sweat glands was calculated by using HE staining and the expression of NKCC1 was detected respectively. Results The number of axillary sweat glands in three groups had no significant difference in statistics (HC=2.528 ,P>0.05). There was significant difference in the expression of NKCC1 between palamar hyperhidrosis patients with axillary hyperhidrosis and palmar hyperhidrosis patients (F=5.158,P 0.05). Conclusion The increase of NKCC1 expression has the relationship with axillary hyperhidrosis of palmar hyperhidrosis patients with axillary hyperhidrosis, but has no relationship with the number of axillary sweat glands. Key words: Palmar hyperhidrosis; NKCC1; Axillary sweat glands
