摘要 |
The invention relates to a composition for treatment of atopic dermatitis comprising a suitable IgE antagonist that does not induce the release of mediators of allergy; for example, anti-IgE antibodies that bind to secreted IgE, membrane IgE on the surface of IgE-producing B cells, but not to IgE bound to the FcepsiRI on the surface of basophils or mast cells. Preferably, these antibodies also do not bind to IgE bound to FcepsiRII receptors. It is also preferable if these antibodies have human IgG1 or IgG3 constant regions, as well as further human portions, if desired. The composition can be administered systemically or topically.
