        Immunological memory refers to the ability of the immune system to respond more rapidly and effectively to a pathogen that has been encountered previously.
  - - - The study verified the central and early role of the immune pathway that drives allergy (Th2), which helps explain the association of eczema, asthma, and allergies in kids
      - The observed increase in the biomarker for itch (IL-31) in skin points to another useful therapeutic target for children.
      - In studies of blood samples from children with and without eczema during the first years of the life, the eczema group showed suppressed development of an immune pathway that handles infections (Th1)
      - Adult eczema skin is deficient in the naturally produced agents that fight staph infections (germs commonly found on skin) and certain viruses, and this deficiency has been thought to be an important reason for the high risk of these infections in eczema at all ages.
      - A characteristic trait of eczema at any age is a poor skin barrier, which leads to dryness and easier entry of triggers of the immune system, such as bacteria, irritating substances and allergens.
        
        solution/suggestion
        
        Filaggrin, a key protein in skin barrier function, is deficient in adults.
        
        This has been attributed to both genetic deficiency and immune cell products that prevent production of filaggrin.
        
        The deficit of filaggrin has been blamed for the poor skin barrier in eczema.
        
        In contrast to adults, however, the skin of young children with eczema was found to have plenty of filaggrin, despite its poor barrier function and skin thickening that is comparable to skin of adults with eczema.
        
        This unexpected finding suggests that the filaggrin deficit may not be the driving force for barrier issues and that treatments targeting this protein might not be as beneficial for children with eczema as for adults.

        cytokines copycat
        
        aka They’re also called communication molecules, information molecules or messenger molecules
        
        hese are little hormone like proteins.
        
        They tell immune cells to grow in number, they tell them where the action is, and they tell them when the enemy has been destroyed among other things.
        
        “Pathways” of communication are made between immune system cells.
        
        If it can, each kind of immune cell generates a certain specific cytokine(s).
        
        Cytokines determine whether Th1 or Th2 helper T cells are dominate in any given area based on information given by NK cells and macrophages.
        
        What if the NK cells aren’t working right? There are many different cytokines.

      - Immune System 101
        
        The immune system works through a combination of multi-celled, interrelated and interdependent activity
        
        The cytokine environment determines how immune cells respond
        
        Cytokines are easily damaged in today’s environment.Cytokines are damaged or destroyed through a number of ways
        
        without them your immune system can’t respond, or doesn’t respond properly, as is the case with autoimmune diseases
        
        Without a properly functioning immune system you’re susceptible to disease.
        
        A more fully functional immune system will aid the body in eliminating almost any disease.
        
        Your immune system is spread out over your entire body. It’s not an organ or any kind of stationary mass. It has many different kinds of cells, each with its own job to do. These cells come from your bone marrow
