Purpose of reviewRecent studies have gained widespread information about the complex regulation of genetic, environmental, immunologic, and pharmacologic factors that contribute to the development of allergic inflammatory skin diseases such as atopic dermatitis. Neuroimmune mechanisms, however, still remain to be elucidated. This review will focus on the interaction between the cutaneous immune and peripheral nervous system in allergic inflammatory skin such as atopic dermatitis. Recent findingsNeuropeptides and neuropeptide-positive nerve fibres are prominently increased in lesions of atopic dermatitis. The density of nerve fibres is increased while peripheral nerve endings are in an active state of excitation. In this regard, neurotrophins particularly described for their functional role on nerve cells are also expressed in atopic dermatitis skin. In addition, neurotrophins modulate the functional role of eosinophils as main target effector cells in atopic dermatitis, as described recently. Interestingly, eosinophils are capable of neurotrophin as well as neuropeptide production itself, pointing to a bidirectional communication between neuronal cell populations and main target effector cells. SummaryNeurotrophins and neuropeptides modulate both the functional activity of sensory neurons and immune cells. We have therefore developed the concept of a neuroimmune network between target effector cells and sensory nerves that links pathogenic events to dysfunctions of the cutaneous immune and peripheral nervous system in allergic inflammatory skin diseases.
