MAST: a flexible statistical framework for assessing transcriptional changes and characterizing heterogeneity in single-cell RNA sequencing data

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2015
Single-cell transcriptomics reveals gene expression heterogeneity but suffers from stochastic dropout and characteristic bimodal expression distributions in which expression is either strongly non-zero or non-detectable.

Targeting Sphingosine Kinase Isoforms Effectively Reduces Growth and Survival of Neoplastic Mast Cells With D816V-KIT

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Mastocytosis is a disorder resulting from an abnormal mast cell (MC) accumulation in tissues that is often associated with the D816V mutation in KIT, the tyrosine kinase receptor for stem cell factor. Therapies available to treat aggressive presentations

MiR-146a: a key microRNA involved in regulating mast cell survival and T lymphocyte differentiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Mast cells are long-lived, tissue-resident cells of the innate immune system. Since the identification of mechanisms that regulate mast cell proliferation, survival and overall homeostasis in the tissues may have important implications for the treatment ...

The mast cell and mast cell disease

open access: yesJournal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1995
Mast cell disease or mastocytosis is a heterogeneous group of clinical disorders characterized by the proliferation and accumulation of mast cells in a variety of tissues, most often the skin. The signs and symptoms of mast cell disease are varied, dependent on the localization of mast cells in different organs and the local and systemic effects of ...

Mast cell subsets and their functional modulation by the Acanthocheilonema viteae product ES-62 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
ES-62, an immunomodulator secreted by filarial nematodes, exhibits therapeutic potential in mouse models of allergic inflammation, at least in part by inducing the desensitisation of Fc휀RI-mediated mast cell responses.

A Mast-Cell-Specific Receptor Mediates Neurogenic Inflammation and Pain.

open access: yesNeuron, 2019
Mast cells can be found in close proximity to peripheral nerve endings where, upon activation, they release a broad range of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines.

PI3Kγ adapter subunits in mast cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The incidence of allergy and related diseases such as asthma increased rapidly over the last century, especially in western societies. The allergic symptoms impair the quality of life of patients and can even be life threatening.

Human placental extract suppresses mast cell activation and induces mast cell apoptosis

open access: yesAllergy, Asthma & Clinical Immunology, 2023
Background Human placental extract (HPE) has been documented to facilitate the healing of certain disorders including allergy. However, the effects of HPE on the functionality of mast cells, a critical cell type in allergic diseases, have not been ...

A Survey of Methodologies for Assessing Mast Cell Density and Activation in Patients with Functional Abdominal Pain Disorders

open access: yesGastrointestinal Disorders, 2021
The aim was to assess methods utilized in assessing mast cell involvement in functional abdominal pain disorders (FAPDs), specifically to describe variability in methods utilized to assess both mast cell density and activation and determine if a ...
