Temporal dynamic changes of phenotypic expression of peripheral CD4 cells during environmental allergen challenge in an experimental model of canine atopic dermatitis: a pilot study.

Abstract excerpt

The immunopathology behind atopic dermatitis (AD) involves a myriad of inflammatory cells and their mediators. Thymus and activation-regulated chemokine (TARC) plays a significant role in the inflammatory phase by recruiting CCR4(+) T(H)2 cells. In addition, CD25(+) activated T cells further propagate the allergic response after sensitization by producing cytokines. The purpose of this pilot study was to evaluate...
