Abstract
⺠Histamine release is more sensitive for the measurement of murine mast cell activation than β-hexosaminidase. ⺠Surface CD200R1 expression can be utilized as a murine mast cell activation marker by flow cytometry. ⺠Histamine release and flow cytometry for CD200R1 can be performed on unpurified peritoneal cells. ⺠These approaches require few cells, so they are ideal for investigating mast cell activation in animal models of disease.
