Interleukin-31 as a Clinical Target for Pruritus Treatment [PDF]
In recent years, the published literature has suggested the key involvement of the cytokine interleukin-31 (IL-31) in the symptomatology of pruritus, and both IL-31 and its receptor have become potential therapeutic targets for a range of pruritic ...
