Overview
There are several possible causes of eczema, majority of which are genetic in origin. Adverse drug effects also manifest as eczema.
Causes
- Damage from the enzymatic activity of allergens is usually prevented by the body's own protease inhibitors, such as, LEKTI, produced from the gene SPINK5.
- Netherton’s syndrome, a congenital condition presenting with erythroderma, food allergy, hay fever, asthma, and urticaria, results from the mutation of this gene. [1]
- Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and Substance P, are responsible for the pruritic sensation in eczema. [3]
