A cutaway schematic of skin shows a coiled apocrine sudoriferous gland (ASG) embedded in the deep dermis/subcutis with a long duct ascending toward the epidermis. In the integumentary hierarchy, this exocrine gland resides within skin tissue and is studied in anatomy, histology, and dermatology. The ASG secretes a viscous, protein- and lipid-rich sweat that, after bacterial action, contributes to body odor and scent signaling rather than thermoregulation.
