Optimizing of the basophil activation test: Comparison of different basophil identification markers.
BACKGROUND Flowcytometric identification of basophils is a prerequisite for measuring activation of basophils with IgE-dependent or IgE-independent stimuli. Aim of this study was to compare different marker combinations in a simultaneous multicolor flowcytometric measurement. METHODS Ten patients with a grass pollen allergy and three controls were included in the study. Basophilic cells were ...
متن کاملExpression of Basophil Activation Markers in Pediatric Asthma
Background: Asthma is very common in children and its diagnosis is based on clinical manifestations, which can be misdiagnosed as other respiratory diseases with similar signs and symptoms. Objective: To analyze the expression of ST2L and CD203c in the diagnosis of pediatric asthma. Methods: Basophils were purified from whole blood samples of patients and healthy controls using Ficol-Paque grad...
متن کاملBasophil Markers for Identification and Activation in the Indirect Basophil Activation Test by Flow Cytometry for Diagnosis of Autoimmune Urticaria
BACKGROUND The indirect basophil activation test using flow cytometry is a promising tool for autoimmune urticaria diagnosis. We aimed to identify better donor basophils (from atopic vs. non-atopic donors and interleukin-3 primed vs. unprimed basophils) and improve basophil identification and activation markers (eotaxin CC chemokine receptor-3 [CCR3] vs. CD123 and CD63 vs. CD203c). METHODS Do...

متن کاملBasophil activation test: handle with care.
The letter to the Editor by Dr Chirumbolo highlights the major pitfalls in basophil activation test (BAT) performance. In my view, basophil activation test should be considered as an additional clinical tool in the diagnosis of allergy and not the “absolute truth”. Basophils play a pivotal role as effector cells in allergic disease, despite representing a small population of peripheral leucocyt...
