Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease caused by epidermal barrier dysfunction and dysregulation of innate and adaptive immunity. Epigenetic regulation of human β-defensin-1 (HBD-1) might be associated with a variety of defects in the innate immune system during AD pathogenesi...
