Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To investigate a molecular mechanism underlying the severe atopic dermatitis in patient of Hyper-IgE syndrome (HIES), atopic dermatitis was elicited by repeated oxazolone (Ox) application to the ear of STAT3-DN mice, a mouse model of HIES, and cutaneous inflammatory responses were evaluated. We observed that abnormal immune reaction is responsible for severe inflammatory responses in repeated Ox-challenged STAT3-DN mice.
