چکیده مقاله:

This study investigated the presence of mast cells in inflammatory aural polyps using light microscopy. The number of mast cells was increased in all examined cases and varied from 2.33 to 41.54 per mm2• The cells were located most commonly around small blood vessels. Occurrence of mast cells was not different in various types of polyps, but their density was severely increased in active inflamed polypous tissue. These findings suggest that mast cells may be a contributory factor in the pathogenesis of middle ear inflammatory processes.

Mast cells in inflammatory arthritis

Mast cells are present in limited numbers in normal human synovium, but in rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory joint diseases this population can expand to constitute 5% or more of all synovial cells. Recent investigations in a murine model have demonstrated that mast cells can have a critical role in the generation of inflammation within the joint. This finding highlights the results o...

Aural polyps as predictors of underlying cholesteatoma.

In a retrospective study of 96 patients 16 different histological features were examined in 100 aural polyps to see whether some or any could be used to predict the presence or absence of a cholesteatoma underlying the polyp. The patients were divided into those who had cholesteatoma and those who did not, so that discriminatory features were identified. These were combined to make an overall p...

Mast cells in allergic and inflammatory diseases.

Mast cells are important in the development of allergic and anaphylactic reactions, but also in acquired and innate immunity. There is also increasing evidence that mast cells participate in inflammatory diseases, where they can be activated by non-allergic triggers, such as neuropeptides and cytokines, often having synergistic effects as in the case of substance P (SP) and IL-33. Secretion of ...

Polyps wrap mast cells and Treg within tumorigenic tentacles.

Gounaris and colleagues describe a previously unrecognized cross-talk between mast cells and Treg in colon adenomatous polyposis (Gounaris et al., Cancer Res 2009;69:5490-7). Adoptively transferred Treg suppress the focal mastocytosis that fosters tumor initiation and progression. In contrast, endogenous Treg, which abundantly infiltrate polyps, show proinflammatory activity under unknown micro...
