U+817A "腺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
腺
U+817A "腺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "gland" in modern usage, referring to an organ in the body that secretes substances such as hormones, sweat, or saliva. It is composed of the radical "月" (肉), indicating the body or flesh, on the left side, and the phonetic component "泉" on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation as "xiàn" in Mandarin. This character is widely used in medical and biological contexts across East Asian languages, including Chinese and Japanese, where it forms compound words like "甲状腺" (thyroid gland) or "リンパ腺" (lymph node).
