Unraveling the gut-skin axis in atopic dermatitis: exploiting insights for therapeutic strategies.

Gut microbiota exert functions of high importance in the intestine. Furthermore, there is increasing evidence for its role in immune regulation and maintenance of homeostasis in many physiological processes taking place in distant tissues. In particular, in this review, we explore the impact of metabolites produced by the gut microbiota on the development of atopic dermatitis (AD).
