    Abstract:
    Mast cells and basophils are important innate immune cells involved in resistance to parasitic infection and are critical orchestrators of allergic disease. The relative ease with which they are cultured from mouse or human tissues allows one to work with primary cells that maintain a differentiated and functional phenotype. In this chapter, we describe the methods by which mouse mast cells and basophils can be cultured from bone marrow. We also provide methods for isolating and expanding mouse peritoneal mast cells and human skin mast cells.
