CD30 in Systemic Mastocytosis [PDF]
CD30 is a transmembrane receptor, normally not expressed by mast cells, which regulates proliferation/apoptosis and antibody responses. Aberrant expression of CD30 by mastocytosis mast cells and interaction with its ligand CD30L (CD153) appears to play an important role in the pathogenesis and clinical presentation of systemic mastocytosis.

Biochemical markers predictive for bone marrow involvement in systemic mastocytosis [PDF]
Systemic mastocytosis is characterized by bone marrow involvement, which requires a bone marrow biopsy for diagnostic work-up. We questioned whether bone marrow involvement could be predicted using biochemical markers.

Review papers The role of KIT gene mutations in pathogenesis of pediatric mastocytosis
Mastocytosis is characterized by excessive proliferation and accumulation of mast cells in skin and/or other organs. Two forms of the disease, cutaneous and systemic mastocytosis, differ significantly in symptomatology and clinical course.

Diffuse large B cell lymphoma coexistence with systemic mastocytosis [PDF]
Systemic mastocytosis is a rare disease and characterized by excessive mast cell accumulation in one or multiple organs. One subtype of systemic mastocytosis is systemic mastocytosis-associated clonal hematological non-mast cell lineage disease (SM-AHMND)

Increased TIM-3 and GAL-9 serum levels in patients with advanced systemic mastocytosis. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Systemic mastocytosis is characterized by expansion of clonal mast cells in various tissues. Several biomarkers with diagnostic and therapeutic potential have recently been characterized in mastocytosis, such as the serum marker tryptase ...

Proposed global prognostic score for systemic mastocytosis: a retrospective prognostic modelling study [PDF]
[Background]: Several risk stratification models have been proposed in recent years for systemic mastocytosis but have not been directly compared. Here we designed and validated a risk stratification model for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall ...

Adult-onset mastocytosis in the skin is highly suggestive of systemic mastocytosis [PDF]
Adult-onset urticaria pigmentosa/mastocytosis in the skin almost always persists throughout life. The prevalence of systemic mastocytosis in such patients is not precisely known. Bone marrow biopsies from 59 patients with mastocytosis in the skin and all

Systemic mastocytosis in the elderly [PDF]
“Later onset” of systemic mastocytosis (SM) has been associated with a poorer prognosis. We examined clinical and laboratory findings, associated disorders, and survival in an older mastocytosis population. After receiving Mayo Clinic Institutional Review Board approval, we identified 42 patients aged 70 years and older at the time of diagnosis of SM ...
