Recombinant Mast Cell Tryptase

Purification and Characterization of Mast Cell Tryptase and Chymase from Human Tissues

. Amongst these are the serine proteases tryptase and chymase. In humans, tryptase is the most abundant mediator stored in mast cells. Chymase is present in more moderate amounts in a subpopulation of mast cells (MCTC ). This subtype of mast cells predominates in connective

Quality Assessment of Recombinant Proteins Produced in Plants

Plant-based expression technologies for recombinant proteins have begun to receive acceptance for pharmaceuticals and other commercial markets. Protein products derived from plants offer safer, more cost-effective, and less capital-intensive

Analysis of MCT and MCTC Mast Cells in Tissue

in the latter. Antibodies against chymase and tryptase traditionally have been used to distinguish these mast cell types from one another. Antitryptase antibodies label all mast cells; antichymase labels only the MCTC type. To identify both types in a tissue section
