indomethacin and Dermatitis, Atopic

indomethacin has been researched along with Dermatitis, Atopic in 16 studies

Indomethacin: A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID) that inhibits CYCLOOXYGENASE, which is necessary for the formation of PROSTAGLANDINS and other AUTACOIDS. It also inhibits the motility of POLYMORPHONUCLEAR LEUKOCYTES.
indometacin : A member of the class of indole-3-acetic acids that is indole-3-acetic acid in which the indole ring is substituted at positions 1, 2 and 5 by p-chlorobenzoyl, methyl, and methoxy groups, respectively. A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, it is used in the treatment of musculoskeletal and joint disorders including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, bursitis and tendinitis.

Dermatitis, Atopic: A chronic inflammatory genetically determined disease of the skin marked by increased ability to form reagin (IgE), with increased susceptibility to allergic rhinitis and asthma, and hereditary disposition to a lowered threshold for pruritus. It is manifested by lichenification, excoriation, and crusting, mainly on the flexural surfaces of the elbow and knee. In infants it is known as infantile eczema.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"It is concluded that patients with atopic eczema often exhibit altered releasability patterns to a variety of stimuli."2.37Altered releasability of vasoactive mediator secreting cells in atopic eczema. ( Dorsch, W; Ring, J, 1985)
"Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by severe pruritus, and cutaneous barrier disruption by scratching contributes to further aggravation of the condition."1.34Cyclooxygenase-1 inhibition delays recovery of the cutaneous barrier disruption caused by mechanical scratching in mice. ( Arai, I; Futaki, N; Hashimoto, Y; Honma, Y; Nakaike, S; Sakurai, T; Sugimoto, M, 2007)
"Pretreatment of arachidonic acid increased the skin prostaglandins (prostaglandin D2, prostaglandin E2, prostaglandin F2alpha and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1alpha) contents, but indomethacin decreased the prostaglandin D2 and prostaglandin E2 contents."1.32Prostanoid DP1 receptor agonist inhibits the pruritic activity in NC/Nga mice with atopic dermatitis. ( Arai, I; Futaki, N; Hashimoto, Y; Inoue, T; Nakaike, S; Sugimoto, M; Takahashi, N; Takano, N, 2004)
"However, decreased NK cell activity in atopic eczema was positively correlated with decreased numbers of Fc gamma + lymphocytes (P = 0."1.27Decreased natural killer cell activity in atopic eczema. ( Brostoff, J; Hall, TJ; Rycroft, R, 1985)
