Trinity College Dublin research points to potential for tailored vaccines targeting immune responses in children with eczema, offering hope for durable, effective treatments.
“There is a real need for new options to treat and prevent infected flares of eczema in children. Current strategies are limited in their success and – even when they do provide relief – the effects may be short-term as symptoms often return. Although antibiotics are needed in some cases, scientists are trying hard to deliver alternative options due to the growing problems posed by antimicrobial resistance,” said Dr.
Working with 93 children between 0 and 16, the researchers compared immune responses between 3 groups of patients: eczema and a confirmedThe key discovery was that the proportions of certain immune cells known as “T cells,” as well as other biomarkers, varied considerably in the different groups. There are many different types of T cells in our bodies but they all play unique roles in our immune response, helping to regulate the way we respond to infections.
