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

“…ResultsBa-V7KO mice exhibited impaired chronic itch but normal AIF, accompanied by reduced skin levels of MCPT8, histamine, CCL24, and CCR3 across both models, whereas OSM was reduced only in the AIF model. After fluorescence-activated cell sorting, VAMP7 knockout basophils exhibited reduced activity, with OSM downregulated in AIF and CCR3 reduced in both models. …”
