About this Research Topic
Biomarkers are valuable tools as they provide information on the diseases endotypes, identification of therapeutic targets, monitoring of diseases progression, and studies the effectiveness of a treatment. The ultimate goal of this section is to identify clinically useful biomarkers that are cost-efficient and involves non-invasive methods. These biomarkers can be a useful tool to predict allergic eczema progression and to better design treatment modalities for different groups of patients.
In this Research Topic, we will be addressing these specific themes in order to further elucidate these concerns:
1. Different endotypes in allergic eczema.
2. Types of biomarkers (for screening, diagnostic and prognostic purposes).
3. Current treatment of allergic eczema.
4. Role of biomarkers in the characterization of allergic eczema patients.
5. Immunological mechanisms associated with allergic eczema.
6. Use of Biomarkers in diagnosis and monitoring the disease.
