Abstract
Our data show that the immunoinflammatory features of ASST-induced wheals involve a prevalent role of lymphocytes (with a mixed Th1/Th2 response), with strong neutrophil infiltration and activity and involvement of the chemokine pathway. We interpreted the finding of inflammatory cells and mediator up-regulation in uninvolved CIU skin as a sign of prolonged and widespread “urticarial status”.
