Allergic contact dermatitis: the cellular effectors

Contact Dermatitis
Ian Kimber, Rebecca J Dearman

Abstract

Contact hypersensitivity reactions are mediated by lymphocytic effector cells. Until recently it was believed that the most important of these were CD4+ T lymphocytes. However, there is growing evidence that in many instances the predominant effector cell may be a CD8+ T lymphocyte, with in some instances CD4+ cells performing a counter-regulatory function. Here we review the roles of CD4+ T helper (Th) cells and CD8+ T cytotoxic (Tc) cells, and their main functional subpopulations (respectively, Th1 and Th2 cells and Tc1 and Tc2 cells) in the elicitation of contact hypersensitivity reactions and consider the implications of effector cell selectivity for the biology of allergic contact dermatitis.

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.
