Tryptase, the most abundant protein product of human mast cells is emerging as an important mediator and target for therapeutic intervention in allergic disease. We have investigated the potential of tryptase and inhibitors of tryptase to modulate histamine release from human mast cells.

Expression of alpha-tryptase and beta-tryptase by human basophils.
The Journal of allergy and clinical immunology, 2004Alpha and beta-tryptase levels in serum are clinical tools for the evaluation of systemic anaphylaxis and systemic mastocytosis. Basophils and mast cells are known to produce these proteins.The current study examines the effect of the alpha,beta-tryptase genotype on basophil tryptase levels and the type of tryptase stored in these cells.Tryptase ...

, 2011 Serum Concentrations of Tryptase in Children
Pediatric Allergy, Immunology, and Pulmonology, 2014Background: Mast cells are dispersed in many tissues, especially in digestive and respiratory-tract mucosal membranes. Tryptase, considered a marker of mast-cell activity, is the most important protease released from these cells during degranulation.

Total tryptase or β-tryptase in post mortem settings: Which is to be preferred?
Forensic Science International, 2018Dear Editor, We have read with attention and interest the Tsea et al. manuscript [1] entitled “Post mortem tryptase cut-off level for anaphylactic death” where a 5-year retrospective study has compared totaltryptase levels in the femoral blood of 9 anaphylactic deaths and 45 controls. A cut-off of 53.8 mg/L was identified for total post mortem tryptase

Biomarkers of anaphylaxis, beyond tryptase
Current Opinion in Allergy & Clinical Immunology, 2015The purpose of this study is to describe the current knowledge regarding mediators involved in anaphylactic reactions, with a special focus on key effector cells and mechanisms.New insight into the potential relevance of pathways other than mast cell degranulation has been unravelled, such as the role of cytokines, platelet activation factor, lipid ...

Rat mast cell tryptase is located largely if not totally in the cell's secretory granules. When the active site reagent [3H]diisopropyl fluorophosphate was used to label tryptase and chymase simultaneously, the ratio of tryptase:chymase active sites was determined to be 0.05. In comparison to chymase and tryptase in other species and chymase in the rat,
