Crystalloid Structure in Granules of Guinea Pig Basophils and Human Mast Cells
نویسندگان
چکیده
Previous electron microscopic observations on basophils and mas t cells revealed the cytoplasmic granules of these cells to contain several different types of structures, including fine particles, lamellae, and whorls (1, 2). In the course of observations on guinea pig mar row and h u m a n skin specimens which were fixed first in glutaraldehyde, we have noted a crystalloid s tructure in bo th mast cell and basophil granules.

The membrane fusion events in degranulating guinea pig eosinophils.
We have investigated the granule fusion events associated with exocytosis in degranulating peritoneal guinea pig eosinophils by time-resolved patch-clamp capacitance measurements using the phase detector technique. Intracellular stimulation with micromolar calcium and GTP gamma S induces a 2- to 3-fold capacitance increase. The main phase of the capacitance increase occurs after a delay of 2-7 ...
متن کاملEosinophil Granule Major Basic Protein in Basophils
The large specific granule of the human eosinophil contains a number of low molecular weight, highly basic proteins that have been purified to homogeneity, including the major basic protein (MBP) (1-3), 1 the eosinophil cationic protein (4, 5), and the eosinophil-derived neurotoxin (6, 7). The comparative physicochemical and immunochemical characteristics of these proteins have been examined in...

متن کامل1982 Activation of Basophil and Mast Cell Histamine
A frequent characteristic of immediate hypersensitivity reactions is systemic or localized tissue eosinophilia (1). This response is attributed to mast cell and basophil release of acidic tetrapeptides (2-4) and other products (5) preferentially chemotactic for eosinophils. Because of this association and eosinophil release of histaminase (6) and other mediators (7, 8) that may dampen allergic ...

Objective(s): To study the c-Kit expression in the gallbladder of cholesterol lithogenic guinea pig model and the effect of Artemisia capillaris Thunb on interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs). Materials and Methods:A total of 45 guinea pigs were randomly assigned into three groups: the control group (guinea pigs fed a standard diet, normal group); the model group (guinea pigs fed a cholesterol gal...
