abstract：BACKGROUND:IL-31 is a cytokine expressed by T cells following activation with cytokines or staphylococcal exotoxins. A major function of IL-31 in atopic dermatitis (AD) is the induction of pruritus in the skin via the IL-31 receptor on sensory nerve cells. However, the regulation of the IL-31 receptor and pro-inflammat...
