In mouse models, Sun et al. found that this symptom is in part mediated by GRPR binding. Fatigue and a severe, generalized form of this symptom are often the presenting symptoms of a disease that is characterized by the presence of anti-mitochondrial antibodies and treated with urso·deoxy·cholic acid. This symptom characterizes a “polymorphic eruption” that occurs during the third trimester of pregnancy. This symptom’s “aquagenic” form sometimes occurs after individuals with (*) poly·cythemia vera take hot showers. This symptom dominates a parasitic infection diagnosed by the “scotch tape test.” Topical permethrin is used to treat infections by several organisms that cause this sensation, including Pthirus pubis and Pediculosis pedis. This sensation accompanies a contact dermatitis rash caused by urushiol. For 10 points, calamine lotion is used to relieve what uncomfortable sensation caused by poison ivy? ■END■
