| 영문 | exocrine glands | 한글 | 외분비샘 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 체표나 소화관 등 신체 내외표면에의 분비를 행하는 샘. 땀샘, 눈물샘, 젓샘, 소화샘 등이 있다. 일반적으로는 분비물을 합성하는 샘세포의 집합체인 샘체와 분비물의 배출을 위한 도관으로 된다. |

| 영문 | pancreatic duct | 한글 | 이자관, 췌장관 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 이자에서 이자액을 분비하도록 샘창자로 이어진 관. 이자관은 샘창자의 중간부에서 온쓸개관과 같이 개구한다. |

| 영문 | mammary glands | 한글 | 젖샘, 유선 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 정상적으로 아기를 낳은 산모에서는 뇌에서 젖분비호르몬(prolactin)의 분비가 증가하여 젖샘에서 젖을 만들게 된다. 이 때 젖의 분비를 촉진시키는 것으로는 아기가 젖을 빠는 행위 등이 있으며, 젖샘에서 생산된 모유는 젖샘관을 거쳐 젖꼭지를 통해 밖으로 나가게 된다. |

| 영문 | nasolacrimal duct | 한글 | 코눈물관 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 눈물은 대개 눈물샘에서 만들어져 눈을 적신 뒤에 누관을 거쳐서 눈물주머니에 모인 뒤에 이 코눈물관으로 흘러 코 안쪽으로 내려가게 된다. 만일 여기가 막히면, 눈물이 계속 고이게 되어 계속 눈물을 흘리게 되며, 또한 병균의 서식처가 되어 감염의 위험성이 높아진다. |

| sweat pore | The surface opening of the duct of a sweat gland. Synonym: porus sudoriferus, porus, pore, skin pore. (05 Mar 2000) |

| sweat test | <investigation> A test used to diagnose cystic fibrosis. Two metal electrodes are placed on the skin of an arm or leg. Very low voltage electricity is used (only a tingling is felt) to measure the concentration of sodium and chloride in the sweat. (19 Jan 1998) |
| inotophoretic sweat test | <investigation> A test used to diagnose cystic fibrosis. Two metal electrodes are placed on the skin of an arm or leg. Very low voltage electricity is used (only a tingling is felt) to measure the concentration of sodium and chloride in the sweat. (27 Sep 1997) |
| accessory lacrimal glands | Small, compound, branched, tubular glands located in the middle part of the lid (Wolfring's glands, 1872, or Ciaccio's glands, 1874) and along the superior and inferior fornices of the conjunctival sac (Krause's glands, 1854). These accessory glands are just scattered scraps of lacrimal gland tissue; all of them produce the same kind of tears and debouch on to the conjunctival surface. Henle's and Baumgarten's "glands" are in fact not glands at all, but mere epithelial invaginations. Synonym: glandulae lacrimales accessoriae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| accessory suprarenal glands | Isolated, often minute, masses of suprarenal tissue sometimes found near the main glands or in the broad ligament or the epididymis. Synonym: glandulae suprarenales accessoriae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aggregate glands | Lymphoid organs located in the sub mucosal tissue of the mammalian gut containing very high proportions of IgA secreting precursor cells. The patches have B and T dependent regions and germinal centres. A specialised epithelium lies between the patch and the intestine. Involved in gut associated immunity. (18 Nov 1997) |
| agminate glands | Lymphoid organs located in the sub mucosal tissue of the mammalian gut containing very high proportions of IgA secreting precursor cells. The patches have B and T dependent regions and germinal centres. A specialised epithelium lies between the patch and the intestine. Involved in gut associated immunity. (18 Nov 1997) |
| Albarran's glands | Minute submucosal glands or branching tubules in the subcervical region of the prostate gland, emptying for the most part into the posterior portion of the urethra. Synonym: Albarran y Dominguez' tubules. (05 Mar 2000) |
| apocrine glands | Large, branched, specialised sweat glands that empty into the upper portion of a hair follicle instead of directly onto the skin. (12 Dec 1998) |
| areolar glands | A number of small mammary glands forming small rounded projections from the surface of the areola of the breast; they enlarge with pregnancy and during lactation secrete a substance presumed to resist chapping. Synonym: glandulae areolares, Montgomery's follicles, Montgomery's glands. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arytenoid glands | A large number of mixed glands in the mucous membrane of the larynx; they are called, according to their situation, anterior, middle, and posterior. Synonym: glandulae laryngeae, laryngeal glands. (05 Mar 2000) |
| axillary glands | Numerous nodes around the axillary veins which receive the lymphatic drainage from the upper limb, scapular region and pectoral region (including mammary gland); they drain into the subclavian trunk. Synonym: nodi lymphatici axillares, axillary glands. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bartholin's glands | Paired glands situated on each side of the vaginal orifice. (27 Sep 1997) |
| Baumgarten's glands | Accessory lacrimal gland's located near the fornices in the medial part of the palpebral conjunctiva; they open on the conjunctiva surface. Synonym: Baumgarten's glands. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Boerhaave's glands | The coil glands of the skin that secrete the sweat. Synonym: glandulae sudoriferae, Boerhaave's glands, perspiratory glands, sudoriferous glands. (05 Mar 2000) |
