ADVENT On Air | Exploring The Urgency to Treat in Atopic Dermatitis
Professor Lisa Beck explores the chronic and persistent burden of atopic dermatitis (AD) as well as the concept of early intervention in patients with AD.
Bullous Pemphigoid Mechanism of Disease Video
Explore the mechanism of disease of bullous pemphigoid (BP), including the roles of autoimmunity and type 2 inflammation, in this informative video.
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.
Role of Type 2 Inflammation in Skin Barrier Disruption and Itch
In this highlight video from the October 2024 ADVENT symposium at EAPS in Vienna, Austria, Dr Christine Bangert discusses how type 2 inflammation contributes to epidermal barrier dysfunction and chronic itch in AD
Atopic Dermatitis as a Risk Factor for the Development of Food Allergies
In this video from the 2024 Society for Pediatric Dermatology Symposium held in Toronto, Canada, Dr. Peter Lio, MD discusses the role of atopic dermatitis as a risk factor for developing food allergies.
Unraveling the Link of Type 2 Inflammation and Airway Remodeling in Asthma
Join Dr. Celeste Porsbjerg as she discussed on how type 2 inflammation may lead to airway remodeling in asthma, exploring the pathophysiologic mechanisms, that ultimately lead to structural changes and irreversible loss of lung function
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.
KOL Video Interview – Dr Amy Paller
In this exclusive video interview, Dr Amy Paller discusses two topics: 1) The importance of CCL17 (TARC) as a biomarker in pediatric patients with AD, and 2) How IL-4 and IL-13 contribute to skin barrier dysfunction in AD.
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 in Chronic Inflammatory Skin Diseases: Histaminergic and Nonhistaminergic Mechanisms and Role of IL-4 as a Central Orchestrator in Promoting Neuronal Sensitization
In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Dr. Brian Kim explores the histaminergic and nonhistaminergic mechanisms of itch, highlighting how type 2 cytokines like IL-4 serve as central orchestrators of neuronal sensitization and immune–nervous system cross-talk.
In Chronic Pruritic Skin Diseases, the Neuroimmune Axis Involves Dynamic Interactions Between Type 2 Inflammation and Sensory Nerves
In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Dr. Brian Kim describes the dynamic neuroimmune interactions in chronic pruritic skin diseases, emphasizing how type 2 cytokines and sensory nerves actively influence both itch perception and tissue inflammation.
Exploring the Potential Role of Biomarkers in Managing Bullous Pemphigoid
Dr. Donna Culton discusses biomarkers in bullous pemphigoid and considers their potential clinical use.
