I hope that this helps you.

yes that is what ive believed it indicated, cytotoxic t-cell can be seen in autoimmunity, because thier t-cell receptor is designed to recoginze certain "protein: sequences, and some can escape all the checks and balances and attack your own tissue, ecezema, psoriasis, and other dermatitis is also part of this, but i think interesting that t-cells can do this, this maybe the reason why anti-histamines dont work. hopefully the OP,is reading the full article i posted.
