Front Med (Lausanne). 2019;6:324 Authors: Wang L, Wang YJ, Hao D, Wen X, Du D, He G, Jiang X Abstract Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory cutaneous disorder that adversely affects patient's health and quality of life due to the complex course and the need for repeated treatment. The exact molecular mechanisms of rosacea are unclear. Mast cells are innate immune cells that can be found in virtually all tissues. Recently, increasing evidence has indicated that mast cells have important effects on the pathogenesis of rosacea. In this review article, we describe recent advances of skin mast cells in the development of rosacea. These studies suggested that mast cells can be an important immune cell that connected innate immunity, nerves, and blood vessels in the development of rosacea. Moreover, we review the inhibition of mast cells for the potential treatment of rosacea. PMID: 32047752 [PubMed] {url} = URL to article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
