Table 1 Differentiated, human cord blood-derived, mast cells were sensitized overnight by the addition of monomeric IgE followed by crosslinking the high affinity IgE receptors, FcεRI using anti IgE for 2 h, 6 h and 12 h. Gene expression profile at each time point were analyzed and 115 genes, which were upregulated 2 fold or more (over control/unstimulated cells) atleast in one point have been selected and classified according to their biological functions as a) Cytokines and cytokine receptors b) Chemokine and chemokine receptors c) Other immunoregulatory genes d)Cell proliferation and anti-apoptosis e)Adhesion and cytoskeleton remodeling f)Transcription factors and regulators g) Signal transduction h) Other genes. Fold change is expressed as fold-increase over control/unsensitized samples, and representative of four separate experiments.
