Heat emitting damage in skin: a thermal pathway for mechanical algesia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Mechanical pain (or mechanical algesia) can both be a vital mechanism warning us for dangers or an undesired medical symptom important to mitigate. Thus, a comprehensive understanding of the different mechanisms of this type of pain is paramount. In this work, we study the tearing of porcine skin in front of an infrared camera, and show that mechanical

Endogenous and microbial volatile organic compounds in cutaneous health and disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Human skin is a region of high metabolic activity where a rich variety of biomarkers are secreted from the stratum corneum. The skin is a constant source of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) derived from skin glands and resident microbiota. Skin VOCs contain the footprints of cellular activities and thus offer unique insights into the intricate ...
