Abstract:Mast cells (MCs) are tissue-resident immune cells distributed in all tissues and strategically located close to blood and lymphatic vessels and nerves. Thanks to the expression of a wide array of receptors, MCs act as tissue sentinels, able to detect the presence of bacteria and parasites and to respond to different environmental stimuli. MCs originate from bone marrow (BM) progenitors that enter the circulation and mature in peripheral organs under the influence of microenvironment factors, thus differentiati… Show more
