Cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions play multiple roles in developmental, physiological, and pathological processes. ECM stiffness substantially affects cellular morphology, migration, and function. In this study, we investigated the effect of ECM comprising gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) on the activation of rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cells, a model mast cell line.

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.

ETV6-ASCL6 fusion gene plays an important role in hematopoiesis and hematological malignancies, but it is rare in hematological diseases. This paper describes a case of etv6-ascl6 fusion gene positive patient who was successively diagnosed as myelofibrosis, eosinophilic leukemia, basophilic leukemia and secondary acute myeloid leukemia. The clinical manifestations and disease evolution have its unique characteristics.

Cationic liposomes composed of cholesteryl-3β-carboxyamidoethylene-N-hydroxyethylamine (OH-chol) and 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE) inhibit mast cell degranulation mediated via crosslinking of high-affinity IgE receptors (FcεRI). Although the inhibitory efficiency of mast cell degranulation is altered by modifying the ratio of OH-chol and DOPE in cationic liposomes, the manner in which physicochemical properties, such as surface charge and size, influence suppression is not clear. We observed that positive surface charge, but not the size, of liposomes plays a role in suppressing rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cell activation.
