Research Abstract |
Intracellular signal transduction through putative' sensor' for the allergen papain on murine basophils leading to IL-4 production was studied. IFcεRIβ-deficient basophils unable to display FcεRI on their cell surface mounted only around 50% magnitude of papain responses compared with those in wild-type basophils, indicating that FcεRI constitutes a fraction of papain sensors, while other, as yet unidentified, surface molecules could serve as papain sensors.
