Researchers from Tokyo Medical and Dental University (TMDU) find that pre-basophil and mast cell progenitors differentiate into pre-basophils before producing mature basophils in mice Tokyo, Japan – ...

Basophils, though the rarest granulocytes, have emerged as pivotal modulators of immune responses in both allergic inflammation and autoimmunity. These cells are now recognised for their ability to ...

Basophils are a type of white blood cell (leukocyte) classified under granulocytes. They are very rare cells that represent only 0.5% of circulating leukocytes. Basophils were named due their high ...

Basophils have long been suspected to be potent inducers of T helper type 2 differentiation. Sokol and colleagues now demonstrate that basophils are required for adoption of the T helper type 2 fate ...

Research into the origins of sepsis has identified a type of rare white blood cell, basophils, as a potentially key component in preventing the development of the condition. What is the basophils ...

A toluidine blue-butanediol stain was used on various tissues of pheasants, chickens, turkeys, and Japanese quail to determine the distribution of tissue mast cells. The population of mast cells in ...

Shown are the results of a hypersensitivity reaction in a volunteer who received an intradermal skin-test injection of 20 μg of keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) protein 1 week after priming with an ...
