An Analysis On Why We Itch?

Dr. Gil Yosipovitch, chair of the dermatology department at the Temple University School of Medicine and director of the Temple Itch Center, also weighed in on the case.

“The big issue is that mice and humans are quite different in a lot of aspects,” he told HuffPost. “It’s an interesting model, but we’re very far away from solving the complexity of the itch-scratch case. There are a lot of other components to it, and it’s not going to be translated to an immediate drug. The problem is that these studies come out and people say, ‘Hey, why don’t you give me a serotonin reuptake inhibitor?’ And we’re just so far away from that.”

For now, the next time you feel an itch, you’ll just have to resist the urge to scratch — if you can.
