In recent years, the role of sexual hormones in the pathogenesis and progression of various diseases has progressively being established, which attempts to explain immune dimorphism. Whether physiological or pathological, variations in hormones influence the inflammatory response and adaptive systems to control increased productions of reactive oxygen species, reactive nitrogen species, and free radicals. Primary allergic respiratory and skin diseases were taken into consideration, and possible biomarkers of oxidative stress related to sex differences in the onset and development of atopic diseases were analyzed. Understanding how these variables interact with each other, and evaluating the possible common targets, lays the foundation for the development of tailored therapies with an eye to precision medicine.

Abstract
In recent years, the role of sexual hormones in the pathogenesis and progression of various diseases has progressively being established, which attempts to explain immune dimorphism. Whether physiological or pathological, variations in hormones influence the inflammatory response and adaptive systems to control increased productions of reactive oxygen species, reactive nitrogen species, and free radicals. Primary allergic respiratory and skin diseases were taken into consideration, and possible biomarkers of oxidative stress related to sex differences in the onset and development of atopic diseases were analyzed. Understanding how these variables interact with each other, and evaluating the possible common targets, lays the foundation for the development of tailored therapies with an eye to precision medicine.Pubblicazioni consigliate
