Itch and nerve fibers with special reference to atopic dermatitis: Therapeutic implications

Nerve density in the epidermis is partly involved in itch sensitization in pruritic skin diseases, such as atopic dermatitis (AD). Epidermal innervation is thought to be regulated by the balance between nerve elongation factors (e.g. nerve growth factor) and nerve repulsion factors (e.g. semaphorin...
