Background: Chronic actinic dermatitis (CAD) is a skin inflammation triggered by light exposure, occurring at the exposed site and potentially causing widespread throughout body. While we hypothesize that severe CAD could progress to atopic dermatitis, exact inflammatory mechanisms pathogenesis remain unclear. Objective: We aimed investigate relationships between severity clinical immunological parameters. Methods: patients were classified into two groups based on severity: mild CAD. assessed total IgE levels, eosinophil count in peripheral blood (PB), ratio of Th2 cell percentage Th1 percentages (Th2/Th1), cytokine/chemokine levels both PB lesions. Results: In our study, counts with significantly higher than those control group ( p < 0.05). It was exhibited Th2/Th1 severe‐CAD compared mild‐CAD There significant increases IL‐4, IL‐5, IL‐8, IL‐31, IFN‐ γ lesions Additionally, level CD63 exosomes elevated Persistent elevations associated balance status Conclusion: Severe demonstrates shift toward immunity from Th2/Th1, accompanied factors such as lesions, well increased PB. Thus, consequently, imbalance may contribute systemic manifestations observed patients.

Allergic and autoimmune disorders are characterised by dysregulation of the immune responses to otherwise inert environmental substances autoantigens, leading inflammation tissue damage. Their incidence has constantly increased in last decades, their co-occurrence defies current standards patient care. For years, allergy autoimmunity have been considered opposite conditions, with IgE Th2 lymphocytes cascade driving canonical allergic manifestations Th1/Th17-related pathways accounting for autoimmunity. Conversely, growing evidence suggests that these conditions not only share some common inciting triggers but also subtended overlapping pathogenic pathways.

Published: April 30, 2025

Immunoglobulin E (IgE) plays a critical role in host defense against parasites and venoms but is also best known for its central involvement allergic reactions. Through interactions with high- low-affinity receptors, FcεRI CD23, respectively, IgE sensitizes mast cells basophils, drives antigen presentation, regulates antibody production, overall amplifies type 2 immunity. The unique conformational flexibility of IgE, particularly within Cε2-Cε4 domains the Fc-region, has emerged as key determinant receptor specificity function. Structural studies have revealed that adopts distinct open closed conformations selectively enable or CD23 binding. These insights reshaped our understanding engagement laid foundation therapeutic targeting approaches IgE:receptor to treat allergies. Initial anti-IgE biologics, such omalizumab, were developed neutralize free circulation prevent While clinically successful, this approach limitations, inefficient receptor-bound requirement prolonged frequent injections achieve benefit. Recent advances led development new class molecules termed "disruptive" inhibitors actively disassemble preformed IgE:FcεRI complexes. By exploiting dynamics, creating steric interference, allosteric mechanisms, these molecules, addition their neutralizing capacity, rapid active desensitization effector cells. In review, we highlight how an improved structural mechanistic receptors guided design next-generation molecules. Such multifunctional biologics might offer faster onset, broader activity, potential use acute situations, setting stage era IgE-targeted therapy.

Immunological Reviews, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 331(1)

Published: May 1, 2025

ABSTRACT Immunoglobulin E (IgE) plays a dual role in the immune system, providing protection against pathogens while also mediating pathological hypersensitivity reactions. Its function is mainly studied context of immediate inflammatory responses, where IgE‐sensitized effector cells, such as mast cells and basophils, are triggered by cross‐linking antigen. An often‐overlooked feature IgE biology its strong ability to boost secondary adaptive thus acting physiological adjuvant. The regulation these responses influenced various factors, including primary Ig structure, post‐translational modifications glycosylations, structural properties antigens, interaction with receptors. Interestingly, not only generates antigen‐specific but IgE‐specific autoimmune responses. Natural IgG anti‐IgE autoantibodies circulate at surprisingly high levels, even healthy individuals, contributing serum levels Understanding emerging concepts, beyond singular focus on initial production cell activation, could contribute better understanding immunological functions IgE. In this review, we aim provide an overview current knowledge immunogenicity. Many open questions remain negative positive feedback mechanisms which regulates response, hope inspire future research into underlying IgE‐regulated their potential implications for therapeutic strategies diseases.
