Patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) were treated with Tranilast, Interleukin-2 (IL-2) (production of T cells in vitro) and blood histamine values, before and after Tranilast therapy, were measured, and the following results were obtained: 1) Compared with healthy controls, the IL-2 producing ability of T cells in patients with AD was increased. 2) After Tranilast therapy, IL-2 production of T cells in AD decreased in quantity to the control level. 3) Skin lesion severities of AD were correlated with the quantity of IL-2 production of T cells. 4) Serum histamine levels were not significantly different between AD patients and healthy controls, before or after Tranilast therapy.
