...TH17 blockers, which are now approved or being tested for psoriasis,(14,67,68) are candidates for future trials in patients with AD, especially for the Asian and intrinsic AD phenotypes, given the strong TH17 skewing seen in these populations.(10) Human studies with selective antagonists against the TH1, TH2, TH17, and TH22 pathways will continue to dissect disease mechanisms in different AD categories....

...We have shown distinct differences in patients with intrinsic versus extrinsic AD, as judged by skin profiling.(10) In patients with intrinsic AD, we detected significantly increased expression of IL12B (p40), IL17A, IL22, and respective keratinocyte-induced products (ie, S100As), whereas similar expression of TH2-related products...

...A strong induction of IL-13 cytokine in both Asian patients with AD and EA patients with AD, together with similar activation of TH2 cytokines in intrinsic/extrinsic and pediatric/ adult subtypes, indicates that TH2 expansion is a common feature of AD, regardless of race or phenotype.(10,41) However, other polar immune activation varies depending on individual phenotypes and racial groups....

...We have shown distinct differences in skin cytokine profiles between patients with intrinsic and those with extrinsic AD.(10) Despite high IgE levels, similar TH2 expression was detected, whereas significantly increased expression of TH17/IL-23 and TH22 pathway genes was detected in patients with intrinsic AD....

...In contrast, no increases were seen in IL-17 activation in European American (EA) patients with extrinsic AD.(10,11,23) Thus we sought to directly compare AD in EA and Asian (Japanese and Korean) AD populations, focusing mainly on extrinsic subsets and with a comparison with psoriasis vulgaris....
