    Author: Imbesi S, Minciullo PL, Isola S, Gangemi S.
    Journal: Allergol Immunopathol (Madr); 2011; 39(6):374-7. PubMed ID: 21763058.
    Abstract:
    The aim of this review is drawing the attention to the contact dermatitis, an inflammatory skin condition due to pro-inflammatory and toxic factors able to activate the skin innate immunity (irritant contact dermatitis) or caused by a T-cell- mediated hypersensitivity reaction (allergic contact dermatitis). The immune system involvement and a variety of clinical pictures are described in order to better diagnose, prevent and treat allergic contact dermatitis.
