Background Topical glucocorticosteroids are considered an efficient treatment option for
atopic dermatitis (AD), but a global assessment of glucocorticosteroid responses on key
disease circuits upon weeks to months of treatment is currently lacking. Objective We sought
to assess short (4 weeks) and long-term (16 weeks) application of topical
glucocorticosteroids on AD skin and define response biomarkers. Methods The effects of
triamcinolone acetonide cream 0.025% were assessed based on gene expression and …
