| Research Abstract |
Fungal cutaneous microbiota, Malasszia is one of exacerbating factor of atopic dermatitis. The symptom is improved when the microorganisms is eradicated by antifungal agents. This study investigated the predictors of the response to antifungal therapy. We found that an anti-Malassezia-specific IgE antibody and the cutaneous Malassezia colonization level affected the response to antifungal therapy. Quantitative methods for analyzing these two factors were also established.
