Drugs including brimonidine and BoNT can also reduce the recruitment of MCs and inhibit MC degranulation to improve inflammation associated with rosacea." Front Med (Lausanne). 2019; 6: 324.

Root Admin Guide Posted May 18, 2021 Author Root Admin Report Share Posted May 18, 2021 One mast cell, Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor-X2 (MRGPRX2), has been found to be significant, and that "its inappropriate activation may cause pseudoallergy and likely contribute to the pathogenesis of rosacea, atopic dermatitis, allergic contact dermatitis, urticaria and mastocytosis." "By contrast, MRGPRX2-specific antibodies and inhibitors could be utilized for the modulation of allergic and inflammatory diseases that are mediated via this receptor."
