Flaky Tail Mouse as a Novel Animal Model of Atopic Dermatitis: Possible Roles of Filaggrin in the Development of Atopic Dermatitis

Comparison of diagnostic criteria for Atopic dermatitis in epidemiological studies

Atopic dermatitis is one of the commonest childhood diseases. Large variations in the prevalence of the disease have been observed in different studies. This variation in the prevalence may be not only from genetic and environmental factors but also from methodology of estimating prevalence of the disease. In this study, Hanifin and UKWP criteria have been used in determining prevalence of the ...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

A short review on immunology of Atopic dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a pruritic, relapsing, chronic disease that arises most commonly during infancy, childhood, or adolescence. It is clear that genetic factors are important in AD, a family history of AD, allergic rhinitis, and/or asthma and other “Atopic” phenomena being common in patient with AD. The two main pathogenetic characteristic of AD are: I) IgE-mediated antigen dependent “Spe...

P22 – Set-up and validation of a mouse model for food-allergy induced atopic dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a complex disorder characterized by flares of red and itchy skin. Infants with AD often also suffer from food allergy. Both ingestion of and skin contact with the antigen can exacerbate the AD. The affected skin is characterized by oedema formation and shows typical Th2 responses by increased levels of IL-4 and IL-13, but not IFN-g. Furthermore, there is an influx of e...
