Mechanical properties and Young's modulus of human skin in vivo.

Abstract:

:The mechanical properties of the in vivo dermis were measured by means of a torque applied to the skin. The resulting deformation of 2-6 degrees, including the immediate and delayed visco-elastic components, as well as the relaxation were measured, and the raw values corrected for a constant skin thickness. The experiment performed on 138 individuals from 3 to 89 years old revealed a diminished elasticity and stretchability after the age of 30, associated with an increase in the visco-elastic component. The Young's modulus doubles with age. The results are discussed in terms of the various models proposed to explain dermal structure.

  • Production of interferon and lymphoproliferative response in whole blood cultures derived from patients with atopic dermatitis.

    abstract::Enhanced susceptibility to viral infections has been reported repeatedly in atopic dermatitis (AD). A difference in the capacity to produce interferons (IFN) in response to viral antigens may be the cause. In the present study we investigated the in vitro IFN production of leukocytes from AD patients in response to di...
