RESUMEN
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a complex and heterogeneous skin disease for which achieving complete clinical clearance for most patients has proven challenging through single cytokine inhibition. Current studies integrate biomarkers and evaluate their role in AD, aiming to advance our understanding of the diverse molecular profiles implicated. Although traditionally characterized as a TH2-driven disease, extensive research has recently revealed the involvement of TH1, TH17, and TH22 immune pathways as well as the interplay of pivotal immune molecules, such as OX40, OX40 ligand (OX40L), thymic stromal lymphopoietin, and IL-33. This review explores the mechanistic effects of treatments for AD, focusing on mAbs and Janus kinase inhibitors. It describes how these treatments modulate immune pathways and examines their impact on key inflammatory and barrier biomarkers.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a heterogeneous immune-mediated skin disorder affecting people of all ages and ethnicities. Despite the development of targeted therapeutics such as biologics and Janus kinase inhibitors, attaining complete clinical efficacy remains difficult. This therapeutic challenge may be attributed to the complex pathogenesis of AD. Although the TH2 axis has been extensively studied, recent advancements have started to reveal the involvement of additional immune pathways including TH1, TH17, and TH22. Understanding the interplay of these immune axes may contribute to a more personalized therapeutic approach based on patients' molecular profile, with the prospect of improving clinical outcome. This review will discuss studies exploring the molecular profile of AD in both skin and blood across age, ethnicity/race, disease chronicity, IgE levels, filaggrin mutation status, and AD association with other atopic conditions. Moreover, it will explore the potential of personalized treatment strategies based on a patient's distinct immune signature.
