Skin Treatment with Detergent Induces Dermatitis with H1-Antihistamine-Refractory Itch and Upregulates IL-4 and Th17/Th22 Cytokine Gene Expression in C57BL/6 Mice.
Abstract
Repeated skin contact to detergents causes chronic irritant contact dermatitis (ICD) associated with itch sensation and eczema. However, the mechanisms of detergent-induced ICD are poorly understood. Here, we established a new murine model of detergent-induced ICD with H1-antihistamine-refractory itch.
