A Role for Tryptase in the Activation of Human Mast Cells: Modulation of Histamine Release by Tryptase and Inhibitors of Tryptase

The Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, 1998
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.
