Systematic Review of Methods and Prognostic Value of Mitotic Activity. Part 1: Feline Tumors [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Pathology. 2024;0(0), 2023
Increased proliferation is a key driver of tumorigenesis, and quantification of mitotic activity is a standard task for prognostication. The goal of this systematic review is scholarly analysis of all available references on mitotic activity in feline tumors, and to provide an overview of the measuring methods and prognostic value.

Mast cells and COPD [PDF]

open access: yesPulmonary Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 2011
The pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is based on the innate and adaptive inflammatory immune response to the inhalation of toxic particles and gases. Although tobacco smoking is the primary cause of this inhalation injury, many other environmental and occupational exposures contribute to the pathology of COPD.

Harnessing the Power of Mast Cells in unconventional Immunotherapy Strategies and Vaccine Adjuvants

open access: yesCells, 2020
Mast cells are long-lived, granular, myeloid-derived leukocytes that have significant protective and repair functions in tissues. Mast cells sense disruptions in the local microenvironment and are first responders to physical, chemical and biological ...

Nuclear Pleomorphism in Canine Cutaneous Mast Cell Tumors: Comparison of Reproducibility and Prognostic Relevance between Estimates, Manual Morphometry and Algorithmic Morphometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Variation in nuclear size and shape is an important criterion of malignancy for many tumor types; however, categorical estimates by pathologists have poor reproducibility. Measurements of nuclear characteristics (morphometry) can improve reproducibility, but manual methods are time consuming.

Systematic Review of Methods and Prognostic Value of Mitotic Activity. Part 2: Canine Tumors [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Pathology. 2024;0(0), 2023
One of the most relevant prognostication tests for tumors is cellular proliferation, which is most commonly measured by the mitotic activity in routine tumor sections. The goal of this systematic review is to scholarly analyze the methods and prognostic relevance of histologically measuring mitotic activity in canine tumors.

Mast cells and mast cell tryptase enhance migration of human lung fibroblasts through protease-activated receptor 2

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2018
Background Mast cells may activate fibroblasts and contribute to remodeling processes in the lung. However, the mechanism behind these actions needs to be further investigated. Fibroblasts are major regulators of on-going remodeling processes.

Local Mast Cell Activation Promotes Neovascularization

open access: yesCells, 2020
Mast cells have been associated with arteriogenesis and collateral formation. In advanced human atherosclerotic plaques, mast cells have been shown to colocalize with plaque neovessels, and mast cells have also been associated with tumor vascularization.

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.

Mast Cells and Company [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2012
Classically, allergy depends on IgE antibodies and on high-affinity IgE receptors expressed by mast cells and basophils. This long accepted IgE/FcεRI/mast cell paradigm, on which the definition of immediate hypersensitivity was based in the Gell and Coomb's classification, appears too reductionist. Recently accumulated evidence indeed requires that not

Identification of an ATP/P2X7/mast cell pathway mediating ozone-induced bronchial hyperresponsiveness

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2021
Ozone is a highly reactive environmental pollutant with well-recognized adverse effects on lung health. Bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) is one consequence of ozone exposure, particularly for individuals with underlying lung disease.
