Equine mast cell tumors are typically benign solitary growths of the head, neck, trunk, or limbs. When involving the limbs, these masses tend to be adjacent to joints without involving them. In radiographs there is often a well-circumscribed soft tissue mass with granular mineralization. The Arabian breed appears to be over represented. Surgical removal is usually curative. In this report, we describe the diagnosis, clinical features, and management of mast cell tumors in the rear limb of a horse.

Epithelial cell diversity and immune remodeling in bladder cancer progression: insights from single-cell transcriptomics.
J Transl Med
January 2025
Department of Urology, First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University, Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, China.
Background: The progression of bladder cancer (BC) from non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) to muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) significantly increases disease severity. Although the tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a pivotal role in this process, the heterogeneity of tumor cells and TME components remains underexplored.
Methods: We characterized the transcriptomes of single cells from 11 BC samples, including 4 NMIBC, 4 MIBC, and 3 adjacent normal tissues.

Background: Allergic asthma is a heterogeneous disease involving numerous inflammatory cells. Mast cell (MC) plays a key role during allergic asthma. Saikosaponin A (SSA) inhibits MC activation and ameliorates allergic asthma, however, its underlying mechanism remains unclear.

Itch is a dominant symptom in dermatitis, and scratching promotes cutaneous inflammation, thereby worsening disease. However, the mechanisms through which scratching exacerbates inflammation and whether scratching provides benefit to the host are largely unknown. We found that scratching was required for skin inflammation in mouse models dependent on FcεRI-mediated mast cell activation.

French Reference Center for Mastocytosis (CEREMAST), Paris Cité University, Necker - Enfants Malades University Hospital, APHP, Paris, France.
Background: Systemic mastocytosis (SM) diagnosis requires the presence of 3 minor criteria or 1 major and 1 minor criterion according to the WHO 2016 classification. The aim of this study was to characterize patients with 1 or 2 minor SM criteria including mutation and/or aberrant expression of CD2 and/or CD25 on bone marrow (BM) mast cells (MCs), but without MC activation syndrome (MCAS) criteria.
Methods: We included eligible patients from two countries diagnosed between 2011 and 2021.
Multiplex basophil activation tests for allergy diagnosis: present and future applications.
Front Allergy

Laboratory for Clinical Immunology and Molecular Genetics, University Clinic of Respiratory and Allergic Diseases Golnik, Golnik, Slovenia.
The basophil activation test (BAT) has become a major cellular test for evaluating the allergenic activity of specific IgEs. The impact of the BAT is due to the ability of blood basophil granulocytes to present IgE on the high-affinity FcRI receptor and to mirror the mast cell response that elicits an acute allergic reaction. The BAT proved to be able to identify allergic patients at risk of reacting to a low dose of the allergen and/or developing life-threatening reactions and thus can significantly improve the current management of allergic patients.
