Résumé
DOCK8-deficient patients have severe eczema, elevated IgE and eosinophilia, features of Atopic Dermatitis (AD). To understand the mechanisms of eczema in DOCK8 deficiency. Skin biopsies were characterized for histology, immuno-fluorescence microscopy, and gene expression. Skin barrier function was measured by trans-epidermal water loss. Allergic skin inflammation was elicited in mice by epicutaneous (EC) sensitization with ovalbumin (OVA) or cutaneous application of S. aureus. Skin lesions of DOCK8-deficient patients exhibited type-2 inflammation and the patients' skin was colonized by S. aureus, like in AD. Unlike in AD, DOCK8-deficient patients had a reduced FOXP3:CD4 ratio in their skin lesions, and their skin barrier function was intrinsically intact. Dock8
