Electrophilicity is one of the most common features of skin contact sensitizers and is necessary for protein haptenation. The Keap1 (Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1)/Nrf2 -signaling pathway is dedicated to the detection of electrophilic stress in cells leading to the upregulation

Hydroxycitronellal, an important ingredient in fragrances, was studied for its sensitizing potential in human skin. Fifteen human maximization tests were conducted with hydroxycitronellal obtained from four different sources at induction concentrations from 5 to 12%. No reactions were induced at
A multi-dose-response induction protocol for the guinea pig maximization test (GPMT), including a statistical computer program, has earlier been developed to improve the power of predictive tests for identification of contact allergens. This dose-response protocol, with 2 modifications (i.e., increased

The need to develop predictive tests which could identify potential allergens has been recognized for many years. There is as yet no accepted in vitro method for the assessment of contact sensitizers. We have tested the ability of a range

Fragrances are worldwide a major cause of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD), a delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction mediated by T lymphocytes. We investigated T cell responses to fragrances using peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and T cells from skin lesions of fragrance-allergic
