What makes an inflammatory disease inflammatory? An overview of inflammatory mechanisms of allergic contact dermatitis, atopic dermatitis and psoriasis. G Ital Dermatol Venereol. 2020 Apr 29;: Authors: Farinazzo E, Giuffrida R, Dianzani C, Vezzoni R, Retrosi C, Di Meo N, Zalaudek I, Conforti C Abstract Inflammatory response in the skin is important for host defence against a broad spectrum of insults including microorganisms, chemicals, radiation and physical trauma. When the inflammatory process becomes prolonged and self-perpetuating, illness occurs. In this review, we discuss recent findings regarding the complex inflammatory mechanisms in allergic contact dermatitis, atopic dermatitis and psoriasis.
