Description

Recently, relevance of environmental endotoxin exposure has been clarified in the pathogenesis of asthma and allergic rhinitis. As for atopic dermatitis, the results of family study and migration study have suggested the importance of hygiene hypothesis. Data relating to hygiene hypothesis and atopic dermatitis are reviewed in the present paper. At present, there are several limiting data supporting pathogenetic significance of hygiene hypothesis for atopic dermatitis. Further investigation would be warranted in this field.
