Scope and Contents

Contents

Mast cells are key effector cells in allergic reactions. Aggregation of the receptor FcεRI in mast cells triggers the influx of calcium (Ca
2+
) and the release of inflammatory mediators. Here we show that transient receptor potential TRPM4 proteins acted as calcium-activated nonselective cation channels and critically determined the driving...
