Atopic Dermatitis (AD) Model

If you're in search of a trusted CRO partner to evaluate the therapeutic potential of your test compounds on atopic dermatitis (AD), Creative Bioarray stands out as the ideal choice. We pride ourselves on our expertise in the field of dermatological research and have established a comprehensive range of atopic dermatitis models tailored to simulate the complexities of this condition. By leveraging our advanced AD models, we can help you gain a deeper understanding of the mechanism of action of your test compounds, their efficacy in treating AD, and potential safety concerns.

AD is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that is distinctively marked by severe itchiness and recurrent eczematous lesions. The thickening of the epidermis in AD, coupled with cutaneous hypersensitivity, is linked to elevated levels of serum immunoglobulin E (IgE) and the infiltration of inflammatory cells, such as eosinophils, mast cells, and basophils. Prolonged exposure to allergens triggers the cross-linking of IgEs, leading to the eventual degranulation of mast cells and basophils. Disrupted epidermal barrier and environmental triggers stimulate keratinocytes to release IL-1β, IL-25, IL-33, MDC, TARC, and TSLP, which activate dendritic cells and Langerhans cells. Activated dendritic cells stimulate Th2 cells to produce IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, IL-31, and IL-33, which leads to barrier dysfunction, decreased AMP production, impaired keratinocyte differentiation, and itch symptoms.
