Abstract: Dermatitis and eczema are allergic relapsing inflammatory skin disorders. The precise mechanisms still are unclear. Experimental animal models are indispensable tools to study the pathogenic mechanisms and test novel therapy. A considerable number of mouse models have been proposed and used to study specific aspects of the disease. This paper summarizes the currently available animal models.
