Th2 immune response plays a critical role in the development of nickel-induced allergic contact dermatitis.

abstract：:Bed bugs may cause mild to severe cutaneous reactions. We studied the ability of bed bug salivary extract (SGE) to induce inflammatory reactions responsible for cutaneous manifestations and found that SGE stimulated the production of several potent chemokines and cytokines from macrophages.
