Influence of IL ‐6, IL‐33, and TNF‐α on Human Mast Cell Activation: Lessons from Single Cell Analysis by Flow Cytometry
Conclusions: In conclusion, IL‐33, and in a lesser extent IL‐6, prime individual MCs for subsequent IgE‐mediated activation. Moreover, this priming effect is synergistic. In contrast, none of the cytokines had a priming effect on MRGPRX2‐mediated activation of MCs. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
