Research Abstract |
Basophil play a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of mouse model for prurigo. Zinc-mediated molecule X regulates mediator release from mouse basophil via activation of signaling pathway A. In human basophil, the expression of Zinc-mediated molecule X is strongly, positively correlated with its mediator, indicating that Zinc-mediated molecule X regulates mediator release from basophil not only in mouse but also in human. These data suggest that basophil, activated by Zinc-mediated molecule X, involved in the pathophysiology of prurigo.
