Article Synopsis
- Primary atopic disorders (PAD) are rare genetic conditions caused by specific gene variants that affect skin and immune function, making diagnosis challenging among common allergic disease cases.
- Identifying PAD requires recognizing clinical red flags like family history and unusual infections, as conventional lab tests are inadequate for definitive diagnosis.
- Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) enhances diagnostic efficiency and accuracy, but requires careful interpretation and collaboration among specialists to effectively manage PAD cases.
Butyrate Increases Heparin Synthesis and Storage in Human Mast Cells.

Quantum and Nanotechnologies Research Centre, National Research Council Canada, Edmonton, AB T6G 2M9, Canada.
Sulphated glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) such as heparin are a major component of mast cell granules and form the matrix within which biogenic mediators are stored. Since GAGs released from mast cells also play an important role in helminth expulsion, understanding GAG storage can offer new insights into mast cell function. Sodium butyrate (NaBu), a short-chain fatty acid, causes ultrastructural changes within the granules of human mast cells (HMC-1) and increases their histamine content.

The use of medicinal leeches in clinical therapy has been employed for a long time, as it was originally recognized for exerting antithrombin effects. These effects were due to the ability of the leech to continuously suck blood while attached to human skin. According to , leeches used in traditional Chinese medicine mainly consist of Whitman, Whitman, and , but the latter two species are relatively scarce.
