Erythematous, weepy, scaly, geometric plaques ? Irritant or allergeninduced ? Major cause of occupational illness ? Histology: Epidermal spongiosis Allergic Contact Dermatitis Pathogenesis Sensitization (Induction)1o exposure ? Contact allergen usually a hapten – LMW, links with endogenous protein ? Picked up by LC’s and presented to na239。 expression of Eselectin for selective Tcell (CLA +) homing to the skin – expression of VCAM1 amp。ve Tcells – Produce activating cytokines Langerhans’ Cell Migration Antigen From Janeway, CA Immunobiology, 5th ed.

The immune system protects us from foreign microinvasion. ? The immune system sometimes screws up. ? The skin has its own immune system. ? Inflammatory skin disorders are understandable. ? New, more specific, treatments emerging. Cutaneous Immunology Overview I. Brief review of general immunology II. Skin immune system biology III. Skin immune system pathology Immunity Innate amp。 toxins – Facilitate humoral immunity – Inhibit Th1 cell proliferation What Determines Th1 vs. Th2 Response? ? Type of pathogen ? Innate immune response to it – Macrophages, NK cells release IL12, IFN? – Mast cells, basophils, ?? T cells release IL4 ? Host’s immune constitution ? Density of Ag presented on APC – High density Th1 – Low density Th2 Cutaneous Immunology Overview I. Brief review of general immunology II. Skin immune system biology III. Skin immune system pathology Inherent (Nonimmune) Skin Defenses ? Physical – Resistance to mechanical trauma – Relatively water impermeable – Physical separation between self and nonself ? Chemical – Free fatty acids – Free radical trapping – Antimicrobial peptides Inherent Skin Defenses (cont’d) ? Photoprotective – Melanin as a UV chromophore ? Injury repair ? Microbiological – Home for colonizing, nonpathogenic bacteria that: ? Compete for nutrients ? Compete for attachment ? Produce antibacterial substances Innate Immune Features of the Skin ? No specialization for skin ? Cells – Phagocytes: Macrophages, neutrophils, NK cells – Mast cells ? Circulating chemicals – Complement ? Locally produced chemicals – Cytokines, histamine Mast Cells ? Bone marrowderived ? Dermal resident ? Perivascular ? Mediators – Preformed (histamine, .) – Newly synthesized (cytokines, .) ? Various stimuli mediator relea
