Systems that interact with the integumentary system
Immune System
The oil and sweat glands on your skin secrete fluids that decrease the pH on the surface of your skin and kill microorganisms. There are even enzymes in your sweat that can digest bacteria.
Systems that interact with the integumentary system
Circulatory System
The integumentary system also works closely with the circulatory system and the surface capillaries through your body. Capillaries near the surface of the skin open when your body needs to cool off and close when you need to conserve heat
Systems that interact with the integumentary system
Nervous System
We can't leave out the important sense of touch. Your nervous system depends on neurons embedded in your skin to sense the outside world.
