Research Abstract |
In this study, using a newly generated mutant mouse(spade mouse), which spontaneous develops atopic dermatitis like skin disease, we investigated a mechanisms for development of dermatitis. Our data showed that bacterial component from S. aureus and pruritic stimulus elicited by PAR2-agonist peptide had a potential for an activating factor affecting epidermal keratinocytes in the development of dermatitis. Infiltration of granulocytes, especially basophils were higher in spade mouse skin than in wild-type mouse skin at just before the appearance of dermatitis, and were increased in skin of spade mouse after the development of dermatitis. On the other hand, our results suggested that mast cells and IgE played a supportive role in the development of dermatitis in our mouse model.
