General description

Tryptase is the most abundant secretory granule-derived serine proteinase contained in mast cells. Tryptase has recently been used as a marker for mast cell activation and is involved with allergic response. Tryptase may act as a mitogen for fibroblast lines. Elevated levels of serum tryptase occur in both anaphylactic and anaphylactoid reactions, but a negative test does not exclude anaphylaxis.

Specificity

Recognizes Mast cell tryptase. Will show reactivity to basophils but to a lesser degree.

Application

Flow Cytometry Analysis: A previous lot of this antibody has been used on fixed cells in FACS using a conjugated secondary antibody. (Sperr, W., et al., 2001).

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Tumors comprise a complex microenvironment of interacting malignant and stromal cell types. Much of our understanding of the tumor microenvironment comes from in vitro studies isolating the interactions between malignant cells and a single stromal cell type, often along a
