Morphology and composition of plantar skin. (A) H&E-stained sections indicating the morphological differences between plantar and nonplantar skin, including a thicker stratum corneum (SC) and viable epidermis (VE) in plantar skin. (B) Two-photon fluorescence images of plantar and nonplantar skin showing keratin (green), collagen (blue), and elastin (orange). (C) Polarized light microscopy showing collagen fiber organization in plantar and nonplantar skin. Scale bars: 200 μm. (human (plantar and nonplantar skin biopsy); Figure 2, panels A (H&E histology sections).) — Morphology and composition of plantar skin.
