Abstract:
Immunoglobulin E (IgE) is the least abundant antibody isotype in mammalians, yet it plays a critical role in allergy and asthma. IgE-producing (IgE+) B cells are rare and difficult to detect, which have hindered progress to understand their generation and differentiation. Recently developed new fluorescent IgE reporter mice have enabled better understanding of the biology of IgE+ B cells. We here describe the usage of the Verigem IgE reporter mouse to study IgE+ B cells and plasma cells by flow cytometry and microscopy.

Antiasthma Drugs: Mast Cell Stabilizers and Anti-IgE Drugs
Mast cell stabilizers, such as cromolyn (also known as sodium cromoglycate) and nedocromil (Tilade), are effective drugs in asthma management. These stabilizers hinder histamine release by skillfully obstructing the activation of mast cells and other cellular entities. Notably, they navigate this task without...
