چکیده

Involvement of human histamine N-methyltransferase gene polymorphisms in susceptibility to atopic dermatitis in Korean children. We found an error in our published article. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. The correct table is as below: Table 3. Genotype and allele frequencies of histamine N-methyltransferase (HNMT) polymorphisms in children with atopy Locus Genotype Atopic eczema N=396, N (%) Atopic control N=146, N (%) P values were calculated using dominant models. Values in bold indicate statistical significance. For multiple comparisons of genotype and allele frequencies, Bonferroni's multiple adjustment was applied to the level of significance, which was set at P<0.0125 (0.05/4). Logistic regression analysis was applied to control for age and gender as covariables. N, number of patients.

47 Involvement of Human Histamine N-Methyltransferase Gene Polymorphisms in Susceptibility to Atopic Dermatitis in Korean Children

PURPOSE Histamine N-methyltransferase (HNMT) catalyzes one of two major histamine metabolic pathways. Histamine is a mediator of pruritus in atopic dermatitis (AD). The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between HNMT polymorphisms and AD in children. METHODS We genotyped 763 Korean children for allelic determinants at four polymorphic sites in the HNMT gene: -465T>C, -413C>T, 3...

FCεRI Gene Promoter Polymorphisms and Total IgE Levels in Susceptibility to Atopic Dermatitis in Korea

IgE-dependent activation of mast cells and basophils through the high-affinity IgE receptor (FcεRI) is involved in the pathogenesis of allergen-induced immune responsiveness in atopic diseases like atopic dermatitis (AD). We sought to determine FcεRI gene polymorphisms are associated with AD in Korean patients, and analyzed the relevance of FcεRI gene polymorphisms and serum IgE levels. We cond...

Specific IgE to Common Food Allergens in Children with Atopic Dermatitis

Background: Atopic dermatitis is a major public health problem, often starting in early childhood and sometimes followed by other allergic diseases. Although hypersensitivity to foods is assumed to play an essential role in the development of atopic dermatitis in some patients, little is known about common food allergens in Iranian children with atopic dermatitis. Objectives: This study was des...

The Role of Staphylococcus Aureus Types and Toxin-Producing Ability in Pediatric Atopic Dermatitis and its Association with Disease Severity

Background: The skin of patients with atopic dermatitis has a high susceptibility to staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) colonization known to produce toxins with super antigen (SAgs) activity which are a family of potent immune-stimulatory exotoxins and may aggravate AD. The aim of this research was to evaluate the ro...

Evaluation of the Frequency of Food Allergens by Skin Prick Test in Children with Atopic Dermatitis

Background: The role of food allergy in atopic dermatitis (AD) is controversial. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of food allergens in children with AD. Method: Fifty one atopic dermatitis children aged 6 months to 5 years entered our study. The severity of AD was determined by scoring index of AD (SCORAD). Skin prick test (SPT) was done using 15 allergens including the whit...
