  • Title: Effect of endotoxin on the peritoneal mast cells in mice.
    Author: Jókay I, Karczag E.
    Journal: Acta Biol Acad Sci Hung; 1976; 27(2-3):119-24. PubMed ID: 799881.
    Abstract:
    Endotoxin administered intraperitoneally has been found to decrease the absolute and relative number of the peritoneal mast cells in mice. The number of peritoneal mast cells showed a dose-dependent biphasic response to endotoxin. Maximal and more consistent decrease in the peritoneal mast cell count was observed at about 24 h and lasted for at least 4 days. Mast cell damage also occurred. The possible mechanism of this phenomenon is discussed.
