Subject basophil activation

In contrast to the above results, the basophil activation test was positive to the implicated quinolone in all five subjects with immediate reactions to a quinolone who were tested [19 ]. However, this assay quantified CD203C, which may be a more sensitive marker than CD63 for detecting IgE-mediated allergy.

The Hi Receptor and its Ligands. The H receptor mediates effects, through an increase in cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). such as gastric acid secretion relaxation of airway smooth muscle and of pulmonary vessels increased lower airway mucus secretion esophageal contraclion inhibition of basophil, but not mas cell histamine release inhibition of neutrophil activation and induction or suppressor T cells. There is no evidence that the H- receptor causes significant modulation of lung function in the healthy human subject or in the asthmatic.
