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.
A brief overview of the pathophysiology of PN
Dr. Chovatiya explains that PN is primarily a chronic itch disease with a complex pathophysiology involving neuronal changes, type 2 inflammation, and fibrotic skin processes, affecting patients' overall well-being.
Understanding the Contribution of IL-4 in the Development of Fibrosis in Prurigo Nodularis
Professor Sarina Elmariah highlights the multifaceted role of IL-4 and IL-13 in driving dermal fibrosis in prurigo nodularis, which leads to persistent scarring and dyspigmentation that significantly contribute to patients' embarrassment, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem.
What role does IL-4 and IL-13 have in driving Type 2 inflammatory skin disease (AD, PN, CSU)?
Dr. Oscar Palomares explains that IL-4 and IL-13 are crucial cytokines in type 2 inflammation, playing both unique and overlapping roles, including T cell expansion and contributing to clinical symptoms in chronic diseases.
The Pathophysiology of Prurigo Nodularis
An infographic exploring the pathophysiology of prurigo nodularis and the role of type 2 inflammation.

ADVENT On Air | Getting to Grips With Atopic Hand and Foot Dermatitis: What Is It, and What Does It Mean for Patients?
This podcast episode looks at the epidemiology, clinical presentation and classification of atopic dermatitis of the hand and feet and the impact it has on patients' quality of life.
The Benefits of Early Intervention in AD: More Than Skin Deep
Many AD treatment goals focus on clinical manifestations, so that if a patient is free of lesions, their disease is considered well controlled. However, the inflammatory process underlying AD reaches far beyond the skin, affecting patients in unique ways at different stages of their lives. Education on the importance of treating AD beyond the skin and altering the treatment approach to fit the individual patient will help improve clinical management and reduce long-term patient burden.
