Abstract
Prurigo nodularis (PN) is a chronic, inflammatory skin condition characterized by multiple, intensely pruritic, distinctive nodular lesions. Subsequent scratching can further intensify the pruritus, culminating in a self-reinforcing itch-scratch cycle, which drives lesion development. The latest data indicate dysregulation of the neuroimmune axis in PN pathogenesis, including the involvement of sensory neurons, key effector immune cells, proinflammatory cytokines, dermal fibroblasts, and pruritogens. In this review, we highlight evidence supporting the role of type 2 immune axis dysregulation in driving the clinical presentation of PN and discuss how related signaling pathways may offer effective therapeutic targets to control PN signs and symptoms.
