Basophil-VAMP7 is a vital regulator of skin barrier integrity and chronic itch by Zhang, Wenhao

“…VAMP7 knockout also decreased IL-4 and LTC4 release from basophils. Additionally, OSM downregulated barrier proteins and upregulated pruriceptors in keratinocytes; however, these effects were reversed by SC144, which restored skin barrier function in AIF without affecting itch response in either model. …”
