Journal ArticleDOI
Viscoelastic properties of human skin and processed dermis.
TL;DR: The purpose of this work is to attempt to determine the elastic spring constant for collagen and elastic fibers in skin and to detemine if the values of these elastic constants are similar to those reported for other tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Viscoelastic properties of young and old human dermis: A proposed molecular mechanism for elastic energy storage in collagen and elastin
TL;DR: It is concluded that the elastic spring constant measured for elastic fibers may be higher than previously reported and is consistent with stretching of α-helical segments of elastin into a more extended conformation during the initial part of the elastic stress–strain curve.
Journal ArticleDOI
Invited Review: Role of mechanophysiology in aging of ECM: effects of changes in mechanochemical transduction
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the relationship between mechanical loading and cellular events that are associated with downregulation of mechanochemical transduction, which appears to contribute to aging of connective tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomechanical analysis of decellularized dermis and skin: Initial in vivo observations using optical cohesion tomography and vibrational analysis
TL;DR: OCT in concert with vibrational analysis appears to be a useful tool to evaluate processes that alter skin properties in animals and humans as well to study the onset and pathogenesis of skin diseases such as cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vibrational analysis of implants and tissues: Calibration and mechanical spectroscopy of multi-component materials
TL;DR: Data is presented showing that there is a strong correlation between the modulus measured using classical uniaxial tensile incremental stress-strain tests and those made using a combination of optical coherence tomography and vibrational analysis, and it is demonstrated that the moduli of the major structural components of pig skin can be measured using this technique.
