Recently, skin defects have been shown to be prime importance in pathogenesis human atopic dermatitis. this review, we summarize latest research data pertinent dogs with At time writing, there is increasing evidence defect likely exists This dysfunction characterized by abnormal intercellular lipid lamellae, morphology, reduced ceramide content and, some but not all dogs, filaggrin expression. association these changes, higher than normal canine skin. Furthermore, inflammation appears worsen It remains unknown, however, if changes observed are primary (i.e. genetic origin) or secondary also even clinically Finally, whether therapeutic intervention aimed at restoring dysfunctional any clinical benefit has yet proven unequivocally.
