Association of atopic dermatitis to the beta subunit of the high affinity immunoglobulin E receptor

Abstract

IgE dysregulation is a major pathogenic feature of atopic dermatitis and other IgE-mediated allergic diseases such as asthma and rhinitis. Allergen complexed to IgE binds to the high affinity receptor for IgE (Fc epsilon RI) on the surface of epidermal Langerhans cells, mast cells and basophils, triggering the release of inflammatory mediators. The beta subunit of Fc epsilon RI has been localized to human chromosome 11q12-13, and variants within this gene have been shown to associate with asthma and measures of atopy. We have tested several polymorphisms within Fc epsilon RI-beta for association to atopic dermatitis in a panel of 60 families (panel A), recruited through a proband with atopic dermatitis. The findings were tested in a second panel of families (panel B). Significant sharing of maternal alleles was seen for atopic dermatitis and allele 2 of RsaI intron 2 (RsaIvin2*2) (P = 0.0022) and allele 1 of RsaI exon 7 (RsaIvex7*1) (P = 0.0036) Fc epsilon RI-beta gene polymorphisms. These findings were replicated in Panel B, confirming the association of Fc epsilon RI-beta RsaI polymorphisms with atopic dermatitis. The combined significance of the association of atopic dermatitis to RsaI polymorphisms was P = 0.0002 (RsaIvin2*...Continue Reading

Atopic Dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory genetically determined disease of the skin marked by increased ability to form reagin (IgE), with increased susceptibility to allergic rhinitis and asthma, and hereditary disposition to a lowered threshold for pruritus. Discover the latest research on atopic dermatitis here.

Asthma

This feed focuses in Asthma in which your airways narrow and swell. This can make breathing difficult and trigger coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath.

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.
