Peptides of major basic protein and eosinophil cationic protein activate human mast cells
The eosinophil granule proteins, major basic protein (MBP) and eosinophil cationic protein (ECP), activate mast cells during inflammation; however the mechanism responsible for this activity is poorly understood. We found that some theoretical tryptase-digested fragments of MBP and ECP induced degra...
