科普專欄–薯不揀單 - 深入淺出–腋下異味的來源

如果測量一個人的細胞數量，事實上只有25%是屬於人體細胞，其餘的75%均由細菌及真菌所據。1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpGWZTDvhr

細菌及真菌可以說是「無處不在」，它們不但寄宿於我們的皮膚外層，亦同時駐紮在我們身體內的腸道及各器官部位，與我們成呈共生關係。1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4uyE6YSXj
1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRG4t89aEYq
最近有科學家發表學術文章（Ref1)，講述位於汗腺附近的細菌就是腋下異味的其中一個元兇。1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dXrCdTTze

（圖1）我們身體的肝腺大致分為兩種，外分泌汗腺(Eccrine Sweat Glands)及大汗腺1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgJhrdfs7F

前者接近遍佈全身，不與毛髮連接。後者主要位於腋下、乳頭及私處部位，與毛髮連接。1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Cig7hwYH7
1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJiRyGNN73
外分泌汗腺的主要功能就是散發汗水幫助散熱，調節體溫。1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NxwQvIFGS
1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQH6pKznjBX
而大汗腺的主要功能，到目前為止仍未能搞得清楚。1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9weYmiB0w

（圖2）下列三點為文中所找出的異味散發機制。1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzS5CTmhSAk
1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKC2E5jbfr
1.大汗腺釋出無味物質Cys-Gly-3M3SH。1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPP9dtNEk2H
1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08GhoxpCPb
2.腋下某品種的葡萄球菌消化Cys-Gly-3M3SH。1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSCKqMVKM3
1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnK5REf3sFo
3. 葡萄球菌消化過後，吐出帶有異味的3M3SH。1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbesXZwVupe
1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OLeWGyor6
換句話說，腋下的異味就是由這些細菌引致而成的。1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClApjzqsR9

（圖3）為作進一步的證實，科學家利用黃金葡萄球菌作對照實驗。1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9bCznKR5V
1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYVtxLAKdY
他們發現人葡萄球菌的近親黃金葡萄球菌並沒能夠將無味的Cys-Gly-3M3SH消化成為帶有異味的3M3SH。1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lAG6Vy1Yb
但是，當把人葡萄球菌其中一隻酵素轉移到黃金葡萄球菌後，無味的Cys-Gly-3M3SH便能夠被消化成為帶有異味的3M3SH，證實異味是由那隻酵素所致。1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOay73EDVAk
1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBtmAOH0JS
這隻酵素一直以來並沒有被前人發現，亦即是說，只要能夠研發出抑制那隻酵素的止汗劑的話，腋下的大部份異味亦能得以除去；1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjHp4ma5WI
1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3oWcm3FS2
異味的產生，基本上是由硫醇（Thioalcohol)及脂肪酸(Fatty acid)而成。此文章所談及的機制純屬與硫醇的產生有關，沒有觸及脂肪酸那一方面。1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KCjJ1DtUY
1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUFRsgttSt
而臭狐是否由這細菌引起或有份參與，文中並沒有提及。1972Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZN1C4gSCvn
