Autoallergy in atopic dermatitis
نویسندگان
چکیده
The term autoallergy denotes autoimmunity accompanying an atopic disease, with antigen-specific IgE as a hallmark. This phenomenon is discussed to contribute to a chronification of the disease and to shape the immune response in chronic atopic dermatitis (AD). In this review, we highlight recent insights into the autoallergic inflammation in AD. Different mechanisms underlying the allergenicity of autoallergens are discussed at the moment: intrinsic functions modulating the immune system as well as molecular mimicry may influence the allergenic potential of these proteins. Finally, the role of specific T cells is discussed. Cite this as: Hradetzky S, Werfel T, Roesner LM. Autoallergy in atopic dermatitis. Allergo J Int 2015; 24:16-22 DOI: 10.1007/s40629-015-0037-5.

متن کاملComparison 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 ...
