Critical Role for Mast Cell Stat5 Activity in Skin Inflammation

Critical Role for Mast Cell Stat5 Activity in Skin Inflammation

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease. Here, we show that phospholipase C-β3 (PLC-β3)-deficient mice spontaneously develop AD-like skin lesions and more severe allergen-induced dermatitis than wild-type mice. Mast cells were required for both AD models and remarkably increase...
