Autoantibodies against TGase-3 are prevalent in the cutaneous blistering condition dermatitis herpetiformis (27).
Under SPF conditions, dermatitis was not observed either in the group housed or the individually housed animals.
These transgenic mice are on a C57BL/6 background and as such are prone to developing a skin condition, ulcerative dermatitis.

Interestingly, these cytokines are associated with pathology in atopic dermatitis, a condition in which β-defensin expression is reduced [ 115] and patients are at risk of developing eczema vaccinatum caused by vaccinia virus.
This high percentage of false negative results can be due to several factors including improper technique, too low test concentration of allergens [ 51, 52], drug interference [ 46], intrinsic host factors, incorrect selection of allergens, IDT performed too long after (>60 days) or during the peak allergy season, and presence of a condition called atopic-like dermatitis [ 49].

Studies have shown that microbial treatment reduced CRP levels in the serum or plasma in ulcerative colitis - while others noted an increase in serum CRP levels in a non-gastrointestinal condition eczema dermatitis, or no effect in both gastrointestinal and non-gastrointestinal conditions.,, This suggests that not all commensal microbes can induce this effect in humans.
