Atopic dermatitis (A.D.) is a hereditary and distinct form of eczema which may be associated with other atopic manifestations. The aetiopothogenesis of A.D. is unknown and it is widely accepted that both intrinsic and extrinsic factors are involved. House dust mites (HDM) are of great medical importance in causing allergic manifestations in human being. In the present work, a total of 30 A.D. patients with different ages of both sexes were examined for the immunoglobulins level as compared to control group. The IgG, IgM, IgA & IgE were higher in the patients than in the controls. These differences were highly significant in the IgE. On the other hand, IgA showed no significant increase.

Many atopic dermatitis (AD) patients have suboptimal responses to Dupilumab therapy. This study identified key genes linked to this resistance using multi-omics approaches to benefit more patients. We selected a prospective cohort of 54 CE treated with Dupilumab from the GEO database.
