Objectives: Chitosan is widely used in medicine to regulate immune responses in T cells and dendritic cells. However, research on the regulation of mast cells (MCs) is scarce. Mas-related G-protein-coupled receptor X2 (MRGPRX2) is a key receptor that mediates MC activation.

Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor endangering women's life and health. Tamoxifen citrate (TAM) is the first-line drug of adjuvant endocrine therapy for estrogen receptor-positive (ER) breast cancer patients. Some sporadic cases have described rare adverse reactions of TAM with potentially life-threatening dermatological manifestations, which were associated with skin allergy.

Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), a widely distributed and persistent organic pollutant, is known to cause immune dysfunction. In a previous study, we reported that PFOS modestly increases mast cell activation. However, its effects on FcεRI (a high-affinity IgE receptor)-mediated mast cell activation, a pivotal process in inflammatory allergic reactions and innate immunity, have not been clearly demonstrated.

Background: Studies of human IgE and its targeted epitopes on allergens have been very limited. We have an established method to immortalize IgE encoding B cells from allergic individuals.
Objective: To develop an unbiased and comprehensive panel of peanut-specific human IgE mAbs to characterize key immunodominant antigenic regions and epitopes on peanut allergens to map the molecular interactions responsible for inducing anaphylaxis.

Activation of immunoglobulin E (IgE)-associated mast cells (MCs) triggers the onset of pro-inflammatory signals associated with type I allergic diseases. Although histone acetylation changes have been associated with inflammatory diseases, the impact of lysine-acetyltransferase (KAT) inhibitors on IgE-mediated MCs function is unclear. Potential anti-allergic effects of the KAT6A inhibitor WM-1119 on IgE-mediated MCs activation and allergic inflammation were examined in this study.
