This link between a specific S. aureus toxin and mast cell degranulation suggests a very specific mechanism, though it’s not enough to suggest delta toxin from staph bacteria by itself causes eczema, says senior author and U-M professor Gabriel Nunez, M.D. Genetic vulnerability likely also plays a role, he says.The finding was made in mice, so it’s too soon to say that the same effect occurs in humans who suffer from eczema, also called atopic dermatitis. But the researchers did find significant levels of staph delta toxin in skin samples taken from patients with eczema.
Nunez, lead author Yuumi Nakamura, M.D., Ph.D., co-author Naohiro Inohara, Ph.D., and their colleagues hope their finding provides a new avenue for developing treatments to help the 15 to 30 percent of children, and 5 percent of adults who have eczema.

謝謝!您消息真靈通:) 是自然雜誌這個老鼠的研究嗎(見內)?

據說研究成果發表在4月21日米國科學雑誌「Immunity」電子版。英文版的我還沒有看過。
