Topical propionate application ameliorates the symptoms of AD patients. (A) Representative photographs of symmetrical lesions in AD patients at enrollment (week 0) and week 2 after topical propionate or vehicle application. Scale bar = 1 cm. (B–D) Before- and after-treatment scores for skin symptom intensity (B), subjective pruritus (C), and treated region-specific SCORAD (D) of the propionate- or vehicle-treated region as measured by SCORAD protocol (n = 11). Treated region-specific SCORAD score is the sum of skin symptom intensity and pruritus scores. (E and F) Before- and after-treatment levels of TEWL (E) and skin hydration (F) of the propionate- or vehicle-treated region in enrolled AD patients (n = 6). Statistical significance was analyzed using paired t test. *, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01; ****, P < 0.0001.
