In this book, I review much of the structural information regarding basophils and mast cells of multiple species.

This second edition provides updated and new chapters to build on and extend the strengths of the first edition.

The blood basophils lead a shadowy existence in the field of hematology, even now, 100 years after their discovery by PAUL EHRLICH.

In this book, the author reviews the ultrastructural studies of basophils and mast cells performed since the publication of an earlier monograph in 1991.

Mast Cells and Basophils will be essential reading for immunologists, biochemists and medical researchers.

Written by clinical investigators specialising in diseases related to mast cells and basophils, this volume will be stimulating reading for those working in allergy, immunology, biochemistry, and respiration.

The book focuses on the role of mast cells and basophils in disease. Some of the discussions examine the part played by mast cells in allergic inflammation and the effect of stabilization of these cells in novel therapies.

This book examines the latest research developments in the field of basophil granulocytes, sometimes referred to as basophils, which are the least common of the granulocytes, representing about 0.01% to 0.3% of circulating white blood cells ...
