2015, Molecular ImmunologyCitation Excerpt :Viral components such as protein Fv and synthetic viral dsRNA effectively activate MCs (Genovese et al., 2003; Marone et al., 2001a) and as a result can elicit the recruitment of CD8+ T cells (Orinska et al., 2005). Although it is unclear if MCs contribute to clearance of HIV, it appears that these cells become infected and serve as reservoirs contributing to persistent HIV infection (Sundstrom et al., 2007; Bannert et al., 2001; Marone et al., 2001b). MCs upon contact with cell surface components of various fungi de novo synthesize and secrete selected mediators without extensive degranulation (Smith, 2012).

2011, Annals of Diagnostic PathologyCitation Excerpt :Although MC are found in significant amounts, their role is not yet clear [6]. However, some authors claim MC are involved in immune [10,19] and allergic reactions and parasite elimination [13]. Mast cells are associated to immunosuppression events and can be found in several cancers.
