UDP/P2Y6 receptor signaling regulates IgE-dependent degranulation in human basophils
Background: P2Y purinergic receptors (P2YR) are G protein-coupled receptors that are stimulated by extracellular nucleotides. They mediate cellular effects by regulating cAMP production, protein kinase C activation, inositol trisphosphate generation, and

SARS-CoV-2 Induces Cytokine Responses in Human Basophils
Basophils play a key role in the orientation of immune responses. Though the interaction of SARS-CoV-2 with various immune cells has been relatively well studied, the response of basophils to this pandemic virus is not characterized yet.

Differential usage of COX-1 and COX-2 in prostaglandin production by mast cells and basophils
Basophils have been erroneously considered as minor relatives of mast cells, due to some phenotypic similarity between them. While recent studies have revealed non-redundant roles for basophils in various immune responses, basophil-derived effector ...

Basophils Orchestrating Eosinophils’ Chemotaxis and Function in Allergic Inflammation
Eosinophils are well known to contribute significantly to Th2 immunity, such as allergic inflammations. Although basophils have often not been considered in the pathogenicity of allergic dermatitis and asthma, their role in Th2 immunity has become ...

Basophils from allergy to cancer
Human basophils, first identified over 140 years ago, account for just 0.5-1% of circulating leukocytes. While this scarcity long hampered basophil studies, innovations during the past 30 years, beginning with their isolation and more recently in the ...

The Basophilic Granulocyte [PDF]
Abstract 1. The history, morphology and technics of counting of basophils have been briefly reviewed. 2. A marked relative and absolute increase of basophils was always found in chronic myelogenous leukemia. Moderate relative and absolute increases of basophils usually occurred in myeloid metaplasias (including ...

Biomarkers for Allergen Immunotherapy in Cedar Pollinosis
To initiate, monitor, and complete effective immunotherapy, biomarkers to predict and visualize the immune responses are needed. First, we need to identify the right candidate for immunotherapy.

Effect of brimonidine tartrate on basophil activation in glaucoma patients
AIM: To evaluate the mechanism of which brimonidine tartrate 0.15% causes clinical hypersensitivity. METHODS: A prospective case-control study comparing 8 glaucoma patients with clinical hypersensitivity to brimonidine to a control group consisting 13 ...

Interactions between Innate Lymphoid Cells and Cells of the Innate and Adaptive Immune System
Type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are a major source of cytokines, which are also produced by Th2 cells and several cell types of the innate immune system.
