Type 2 Inflammation Within Skin Tissue in AD
In this highlight video from the September 2024 ADVENT symposium at EADV’s Annual Meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, Dr. Stephan Weidinger discusses how type 2 inflammation contributes to epidermal barrier dysfunction, perivascular infiltration and plasma protein leakage, and chronic itch in AD.

Within and Beyond the Skin: New Perspectives on the Role of Type 2 Inflammation in AD
This video from the May 2024 ADVENT symposium at ESPD’s Annual Meeting in Košice, Slovakia features Dr. Lisa Weibel presenting how local type 2 inflammation within the skin contributes to epidermal barrier dysfunction, dysbiosis, and neuroimmune dysfunction, leading to the clinical signs and symptoms of AD. Dr. Weibel also reviews how systemic inflammation affects organ systems beyond the skin, and could potentially manifest as atopic and non-atopic comorbidities.

IL-4 Contributes to Systemic Type 2 Inflammation in AD
In this highlight video from the ADVENT AD symposium held at EADV’s 2024 Annual Meeting in Amsterdam, Dr. Stephan Weidinger discusses how IL-4 contributes to systemic type 2 inflammation in AD via several mechanisms, including T cell differentiation, B cell activation and IgE generation, and T regulatory cell inhibition.

Blood Eosinophils: A Biomarker in COPD
In COPD, blood eosinophil testing is one of the five core assessments for initial patient evaluation, according to the GOLD Report. This infographic illustrates the role that blood eosinophils, as a biomarker for type 2 inflammation, play in predicting exacerbation risk and other COPD outcomes, and provides information from the GOLD Report on when to test for blood eosinophils and how eosinophils may guide patient management.

Under the Itchy Surface: The Insidious, Cumulative Burden of Type 2 Inflammation in AD
In this video from the March 2025 ADVENT symposium in Orlando, Florida, Dr. Eric Simpson discusses the systemic nature of atopic dermatitis (AD) and how the disease burden extends beyond the skin. Through the lens of cumulative life course impairment, Dr. Simpson goes on to explore how persistent type 2 inflammation in AD may drive both atopic and nonatopic comorbidities, emphasizing the potential importance of early and effective therapeutic intervention to alter disease progression

Mucus Plugging as a Potential Target in Asthma Management
Join Dr. Celeste Porsbjerg as she explores the mechanisms underlying mucus plugging development as mucociliary clearance. She explains how type 2 cytokines—particularly IL-13—impair this clearance mechanism, leading to mucus plugging, and worsened asthma outcomes.
