What Drives Chronic Itch and the Itch-Scratch Cycle in Atopic Dermatitis?
Watch this short video to learn how type 2 inflammation, skin barrier dysfunction, and neurosensitization contribute to chronic itch and the itch-scratch cycle in atopic dermatitis
Itch: Neuroimmune Axis in Chronic Pruritic Skin Diseases
Dr. Weidinger discusses the intricate neuroinflammatory mechanisms of chronic pruritic skin disease such as AD and PN.
Type 2 Inflammation Contributes to Itch and Fibrois in PN
Join Dr. Kwatra outlining the micro itch cycle involving type 2 cell polarization and cytokines that directly affect fibroblasts to cause more immune dysregulation in PN.
A Tale of Two Itches: Bridging the Gap With Type 2 Inflammation in PN and CSU
Drs. Elmariah, Kim, and Metz explore the latest research on neuro-immune mechanisms driving chronic itch and inflammation in PN and CSU.
Underlying Type 2 Inflammation Drives a Chronic Itch-Scratch Cycle in Atopic Dermatitis
In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Dr. Brian Kim explains how underlying type 2 inflammation sustains the chronic itch-scratch cycle in atopic dermatitis, highlighting the interplay of barrier dysfunction, cytokine signaling, and neuronal activation.
Beyond Itch: The Multifaceted Role of IL-4/IL-13 in the Pathogenesis of PN
Professor Sarina Elmariah describes how IL-4 and IL-13, key drivers of type 2 inflammation, uniquely contribute to manifestations of prurigo nodularis beyond itch.
Expert Interview: Featuring Dr Shawn Kwatra on PN itch and impact on patients
Join Dr Kwatra as he dives deeper into the mechanism of lesion formation in Prurigo Nodularis and the impact the development of these skin lesions have on patient life.
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.
Itch in Prurigo Nodularis
In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Dr Brian Kim discuss the burdensome itch in prurigo nodularis, the multifactorial etiology of the disease, and the multiple pathological factors that contribute to chronic itch and skin inflammation in PN.
The Shared Path: Type 2 Inflammation As a Driver of Chronic Itch
Professor Matthias Augustin highlights the role of type 2 inflammation in chronic itch across distinct pruritic skin diseases and the cumulative burden of chronic itch and skin lesions in PN.
Neuroiflammation and Neurogenic Itch in Prurigo Nodularis
Dr. Chovatiya discusses the neuroinflammatory mechanisms of PN.
Distinct Mechanisms Drive Inflammation and Itch in Chronic, Type 2 Inflammatory Diseases
In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Dr Brian Kim provides an overview of itch in type 2 inflammatory skin diseases and explains how the shared and unique mechanisms that drive inflammation and itch mediate each disease in distinct ways.
