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.

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.
Join leading pulmonologists across asthma and COPD for educational symposia at the ERS congress in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

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
Listen to the latest updates in type 2 inflammatory science and associated skin diseases, brought to you by leading dermatology experts in the field. ADVENT On Air podcasts feature scientific conversations that explore new research into the pathophysiology, clinical features, and disease burden for a range of dermatological diseases linked to type 2 inflammation, including atopic dermatitis (AD) and prurigo nodularis (PN). Hear new insights revealed through expert-led conversations below or in your preferred podcast app.

Dr. Butler delves into the multifaceted biological mechanisms, including type 2 inflammation, that drive chronic pruritus in older adults. He explains how age-related changes contribute to epidermal barrier dysfunction, neuropathic damage, and immune decline, leading to chronic pruritus.
Join Professors Matthias Augustin and Sarina Elmariah for an engaging ADVENT symposium as they explore the pivotal role of type 2 inflammation in prurigo nodularis and chronic itch.

In this video from EADV 2025, Dr. Hawkes reviews the pathophysioogy of CSU with a focus on the role of type 2 inflammation
This symposium highlights type 2 inflammation as a key driver of chronic itch and the characteristic skin lesions of prurigo nodularis and evaluates the real-world implications of targeted therapies on clinical practice.
In this webinar, Dr. Butler highlights the complexities of chronic pruritus in older adults, highlighting its prevalence, burden, and the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms, including the role of type 2 inflammation
