Abstract
Filaggrin is overexpressed in lesional CIU skin, and increased filaggrin expression is positively correlated with urticaria severity in CIU. Altered filaggrin expression has physiologic effects on transepidermal water loss and pH in the skin of patients with CIU, suggesting increased barrier function compared with skin from patients with AD.
