  Author(s): Isaac Ginsburg* and Erez Koren
  
  The aim of the present short communication is to shed a novel light on the auto immune disorder atopic dermatitis by discussing the possible role played by the plethora of toxic agents released by Staphylococcus aureus which can act in a tight synergism with neutrophils derived cationic polyelectrolytes as related to the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis (AD). This disorder results in inflammation of the skin characterized by itchiness, red skin, a rash, by the accumulations of large numbers of Staphylococcus aureus their toxins and proinflammatory agents secreted by migrating neutrophiles are considered the main cause of AD pathogenicity...
