Perivascular mast cells regulate vein graft neointimal formation and remodeling [PDF]
Objective. Emerging evidence suggests an important role for mast cells in vein graft failure. This study addressed the hypothesis that perivascular mast cells regulate in situ vascular inflammatory and proliferative responses and subsequent vein graft ...

Mast cell activation within the mesentery depends on vagal signaling following abdominal surgery. [PDF]
Introduction: Abdominal surgery causes an inflammatory reaction in the intestines, resulting in a postoperative ileus. Mast cells can be divided into mucosal mast cells and connective tissue mast cells. In this study, we investigated mast cell activation

Mast cells (MCs) function as a component of the tumor microenvironment (TME) and have both pro- and anti-tumorigenic roles depending on the tumor type and its developmental stage. Several reports indicate the involvement of MCs in angiogenesis in the TME

The HMC-1.2 human mast cell (huMC) line is often employed in the study of attributes of neoplastic huMCs as found in patients with mastocytosis and their sensitivity to interventional drugs in vitro and in vivo.

Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is released by epithelial cells following disturbed homeostasis to act as “alarmin” and driver of Th2-immunity. Aberrant TSLP expression is a hallmark of atopic diseases, including atopic dermatitis (AD).

Oncogenic D816V-KIT signaling in mast cells causes persistent IL-6 production
Persistent dysregulation of IL-6 production and signaling have been implicated in the pathology of various cancers. In systemic mastocytosis, increased serum levels of IL-6 associate with disease severity and progression, although the mechanisms involved

Mast cells have been considered for many years to participate specifically in allergic reactions through the release of cytokines, chemokines, proteases, leukotrienes, and bioactive polyamines. Emerging roles for mast cells have been identified recently, which highlight their relevance in both innate and adaptive immunity.

Osteoporosis and bone disease are common in patients with systemic mastocytosis. Here, the authors show that extracellular vesicles released by neoplastic mast cells of the patients block osteoblast differentiation and bone mineralization when injected ...
