Topical application of the BLT leukotriene B4 receptor antagonist ONO-4057 inhibited<br>spontaneous itch-related behaviour. The concentration of leukotriene B4 was significantly increased in the lesional skin. The expression levels of 5-lipoxygenase were also elevated in the lesional skin, yet present throughout the epidermis of both healthy and lesional skin. These results suggest a role for leukotriene B4 in chronic dermatitis-related itch. Sphingosylphosphorylcholine (SPC) was increased in the epidermis of the lesional skin. Moreover, intradermal injection of SPC elicited itch-related behaviours in healthy mice. Because SPC induces itch-related responses through the production of leukotriene B4 in keratinocytes (J Invest Dermatol, 129, 2009, 2854), these results suggest that an increase in SPC induces<br>leukotriene B4-mediated itching in chronic dermatitis. BLT1 receptor and 5-lipoxygenase in the skin may be effective pharmacological targets for the treatment of itch in atopic dermatitis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Key words: atopic dermatitis \u2013 itch \u2013
