Why targeting Type 2 Inflammation is important in the treatment of skin diseases like AD, PN and CSU
Dr. Palomares discusses how type 2 inflammation, an aberrant immune response, underlies skin diseases like atopic dermatitis, prurigo nodularis, and chronic spontaneous urticaria, linking to their clinical symptoms.
Skin Barrier Dysfunction in AD
In this highlight video from the May 2024 ADVENT symposium at ESPD’s Annual Meeting in Košice, Slovakia, Dr. Lisa Weibel discusses how type 2 inflammation contributes to epidermal barrier dysfunction and AD signs and symptoms.
Guideline-Based Diagnosis of Atopic Dermatitis
Explore 3 interactive patient cases to learn more about the signs, symptoms, and burden of atopic dermatitis. Diagnose the patients based on a variety of cases and presentations based on American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) criteria and assess their disease severity
The Role of IL-4 and IL-13 in CSU Pathogenesis
Dive into the complex pathophysiology of chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), where mast cell degranulation drives the hallmark signs and symptoms. This interactive infographic elucidates how key type 2 cytokines, specifically IL-4 and IL-13, contribute to mast cell activation, immune cell trafficking into the skin, and neuronal sensitization in CSU, which ultimately leads to the release of mediators like histamine that cause wheals, angioedema, and itch.
Coexisting Type 2 Inflammatory Diseases Can Add to the Patient Overall Disease Burden
In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Prof. Oscar Palomares highlights how patients with type 2 inflammatory diseases often experience multimorbidities, with overlapping symptoms that amplify their overall disease burden and impact quality of life.
Diving Below the Surface of AD: The Role of Type 2 Inflammation
This video from the September 2024 ADVENT symposium at EADV’s Annual Meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, features Dr. Stephan Weidinger discussing how local type 2 inflammation at the skin tissue level contributes to epidermal barrier dysfunction, dysbiosis, and neuroimmune dysfunction, leading to the clinical signs and symptoms of AD. Dr. Weidinger also reviews how systemic inflammation affects organ systems beyond the skin and can manifest as atopic and non-atopic comorbidities.
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.
The Path to Nodules: Type 2 Inflammation at the Core of Chronic Itch and Fibrosis in Prurigo Nodularis
Join Dr. Shawn Kwatra in discussing the diverse clinical presentations of PN and the role of type 2 inflammation in disease pathogenesis.
World Anosmia Awareness Day
Explore our educational resources about loss of smell and the role of type 2 inflammation in CRSwNP, featuring expert insights from Profs. Wytske Fokkens and Joaquim Mullol.
The Pathophysiology of Prurigo Nodularis
An infographic exploring the pathophysiology of prurigo nodularis and the role of type 2 inflammation.
The PEDISTAD Survey: Assessing the Burden of Atopic Dermatitis in the Global Pediatric Population
An interactive tool used to explore the global burden of atopic dermatitis in children and adolescents.
Type 2 Inflammation: Links With Severe Uncontrolled CRSwNP
In this video soundbite from the ERS-ISIAN 2025 symposium, Dr. Vibeke Backer discusses how Type 2 inflammation drives severe, uncontrolled CRSwNP. It covers key immune cells and biomarkers (e.g., IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, TSLP), global prevalence differences, and the importance of symptom tracking and targeted therapies.
