Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Dermatitis has been reported after initiation of IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) inhibitors (IL-6Ri), while genetic association studies of atopic dermatitis (AD) have implicated IL-6R pathway signaling. However, causality remains unclear. As the indications for IL-6Ri expand, so do the clinical importance of determining whether there is mechanistic evidence linking it to AD. OBJECTIVE: Our aim was to examine...
