Lysophosphatidic acid affects sensory neurons and may cause neuropathic pain and itch.
research Author response: Neutrophils promote CXCR3-dependent itch in the development of atopic dermatitis
Neutrophils are important for causing chronic itch in atopic dermatitis, and blocking the CXCR3 receptor may reduce this itch.
research Decision letter: Neutrophils promote CXCR3-dependent itch in the development of atopic dermatitis
Neutrophils are key in causing chronic itch in atopic dermatitis, and blocking CXCR3 could reduce this itch.
