Main immunological hypotheses of the canine demodicosis

Canine demodicosis is a common cutaneous condition in dogs, characterized by a proliferative increase of mites from the genus Demodex. Despite its high prevalence, the onset and development of demodicosis are still unknown; however, they are primarily associated to an immune dysfunction. The immune...

description Canine demodicosis is a common cutaneous condition in dogs, characterized by a proliferative increase of mites from the genus Demodex. Despite its high prevalence, the onset and development of demodicosis are still unknown; however, they are primarily associated to an immune dysfunction. The immune system plays an important role controlling mites in healthy animals as well as on the development of the disease in sick animals. The immune mechanisms that lead to an unbalance in the innate and adaptive systems, as well as the mite mechanisms to evade the immune system remain unknown. Consequently, various hypotheses have been proposed to try explaining possible immune mechanisms. This paper aims to conduct an updated review of the main hypotheses related to the immune mechanisms associated to demodicosis in dogs.

Canine demodicosis is a common cutaneous condition in dogs, characterized by a proliferative increase of mites from the genus Demodex.

La demodicosis canina es una enfermedad dermatológica común en perros; se presenta por un aumento en la proliferación de los ácaros del género Demodex spp., pero, a pesar de su alta prevalencia, su aparición y desarrollo son aún desconocidos, sin embargo, se asocian, principalmente, a una inmunodisfunción. El sistema inmune juega un papel importante tanto en el control del ácaro en animales sanos como en el desarrollo de la enfermedad en enfermos; en estos últimos se desconocen los mecanismos inmunitarios que llevan al desbalance en el sistema innato y adaptativo y a la evasión del sistema inmune por el ácaro; debido a esto se han postulado hipótesis que, en conjunto, tratan de explicar los posibles mecanismos inmunológicos. El presente artículo revisa las principales hipótesis inmunológicas relacionadas con la presentación de demodicosis en perros.
