Abstract

Skin is a huge organ which plays great role as a multifunctional barrier between the body and environment. It maintains body homeostasis through preventing water loss, governing body temperature, and protecting against pathogenic microorganisms and toxic substances. In this chapter, different functions of skin have been summarized. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.
