Immunosuppressive environmental chemicals may exacerbate allergic diseases, including atopic dermatitis (AD). We examined the effects of the immunosuppressive environmental chemicals methoxychlor, parathion, piperonyl butoxide, dexamethasone, and cyclophosphamide on picryl-chloride-induced AD in NC/Nga mice. Mice were orally exposed (age, 5 weeks)

Understanding the evolution of the direct and indirect pathways of allorecognition following tissue transplantation is essential in the design of tolerance-promoting protocols. On the basis that donor bone marrow-derived antigen-presenting cells are eliminated within days of transplantation, it has been

Effects of the histamine H(4) receptor antagonist 1-[(5-chloro-1H-indol-2-yl)carbonyl]-4-methylpiperazine (JNJ7777120) were examined for 99 days in a long-term experimental model of pruritic dermatitis induced by repeated challenge with 2,4,6-trinitrochlorobenzene (TNCB) in HR-1 mice. Repeated application of TNCB to the back skin

Neuroimmunological disorders are involved in the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis (AD), partly through enhanced sensory nerve-skin mast cell interaction. Cell adhesion molecule 1 (CADM1) is a mast-cell adhesion molecule that mediates the adhesion to, and communication with, sympathetic nerves. To

Korean red ginseng (KRG) has been shown to possess various biological activities including anti-inflammatory properties. We aimed to investigate the effects and mechanism of KRG on the prevention of atopic dermatitis (AD) using a mouse model. The effect of KRG
