Histamine and TNF-α release by rat peritoneal mast cells stimulated with Trichomonas vaginalis

Parasite, 2011
Mast cells have been reported to be predominant in the vaginal smears of patients infected with T. vaginalis. In this study, we investigated whether T. vaginalis could induce mast cells to migrate and to produce TNF-α and histamine.

Thymic mast cells: From morphology to physiology

Интегративная физиология, 2021
This minireview summarizes some of our results on the structure, origin, and functions of thymic mast cells, as well as their role in stress-induced thymic atrophy. A comparison of the thymic mast cells with the connective tissue and mucosa mast cells is

Analysis of human lung mast cells by single cell RNA sequencing

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
Mast cells are tissue-resident cells playing major roles in homeostasis and disease conditions. Lung mast cells are particularly important in airway inflammatory diseases such as asthma.

Asthma and Mast Cell Biology

European Journal of Inflammation, 2014
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the lung and its pathophysiology is initiated by mast cell activation in response to the antigen binding to IgE receptor as well as by TH2 cell activation.

Immunoprofiling Reveals Novel Mast Cell Receptors and the Continuous Nature of Human Lung Mast Cell Heterogeneity

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
BackgroundImmunohistochemical analysis of granule-associated proteases has revealed that human lung mast cells constitute a heterogeneous population of cells, with distinct subpopulations identified.

Differential expression of integrin subunits on adherent and nonadherent mast cells

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2003
Mast cell progenitors arise in bone marrow and then migrate to peripheral tissues where they mature. It is presumed that integrin receptors are involved in their migration and homing.

Mast Cell Activation in Brain Injury, Stress, and Post-traumatic Stress Disorder and Alzheimer's Disease Pathogenesis

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
Mast cells are localized throughout the body and mediate allergic, immune, and inflammatory reactions. They are heterogeneous, tissue-resident, long-lived, and granulated cells.

Cell Intrinsic Deregulated ß-Catenin Signaling Promotes Expansion of Bone Marrow Derived Connective Tissue Type Mast Cells, Systemic Inflammation, and Colon Cancer

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Mast cells constitutively express ß-catenin and expand in solid tumors such as colon and skin cancer. However, the role of ß-catenin signaling in mast cells and the cause or effect of mast cell expansion and tumor growth has yet to be established.

Role and mechanism of mast cells in solid tumors

Zhongguo linchuang yanjiu
Mast cells are a type of innate immune cells, and have long been considered to be related to the pathogenesis of allergic and autoimmune diseases. However, in recent years, a number of studies have found that mast cells play an indispensable role in ...
