Abstract excerpt
Dendritic cell toll-like receptors (TLRs) and the high-affinity immunoglobulin E (IgE) receptor (FcεRI) may biologically interact with regard to atopic dermatitis (AD) development and, especially, severity. Our aim here was to test if such interaction can be detected on the genetic level. The combined effect of the TLR2 gene (TLR2) rs4696480 and the FcεRI α-chain gene (FCER1A) rs2252226 and rs2251746...
