The role of interaction between keratinocytes and type 2 inflammation in the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis

Patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) have skin barrier dysfunction, which is closely related to keratinocyte (KC) abnormalities. Upon stimulation by external factors, KCs release a large number of inflammatory mediators, thereby activating type 2 inflammation, which, in turn, exacerbates skin barrie...

Description
Summary:Patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) have skin barrier dysfunction, which is closely related to keratinocyte (KC) abnormalities. Upon stimulation by external factors, KCs release a large number of inflammatory mediators, thereby activating type 2 inflammation, which, in turn, exacerbates skin barrier dysfunction. Thus, the interaction between KCs and type 2 inflammation is a key factor in the pathogenesis of AD, and exacerbation of inflammation and pruritus. At present, the innovative medications, such as biologics and small molecule drugs, have been shown anti-inflammatory effects in AD. Studies also demonstrate their role in skin barrier repair. Therefore, research on the interaction between KCs and type 2 inflammation will help understand the pathogenesis of AD and provide evidence to optimize treatment strategies for AD.
