Abstract

Close
- Atopic dermatitis is a relapsing inflammatory skin condition, in which bacteria, fungi and viruses may colonize the skin and aggravate the condition. Mannose-binding lectin is part of the innate immune system. Polymorphism in the mannose-binding lectin gene can result in deficiency of mannose-binding lectin, which may affect defence against microbes. The aim of this study was to investigate whether polymorphisms in the mannose-binding lectin gene affect the extent of sensitization to common skin microbes, the skin barrier function, or the severity of the disease in a cohort of patients with atopic dermatitis. Genetic testing of mannose-binding lectin polymorphism was performed in 60 patients with atopic dermatitis. The disease severity, skin barrier function, and serum levels of specific immunoglobulin E against skin microbes were measured. In patients with low mannose-binding lectin genotype (group 1) 6 of 8 (75%) were sensitized to Candida albicans, compared to 14 of 22 (63.6%) patients with intermediate mannose-binding genotype (group 2) and 10 of 30 (33.3%) patients with high mannose-binding genotype (group 3). Group 1 (low mannose-binding lectin) was more likely to be sensitized to Candida albicans compared with group 3 (high mannose-binding lectin) (odds ratio 6.34, p-value 0.045). In this cohort of patients with atopic dermatitis, mannose-binding lectin deficiency was associated with increased sensitization to Candida albicans.
