Mast cells are key immune effector cells which release chemokines, proteases, and other inflammatory mediators upon activation by immunological stimuli. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of co-releasing proteases on the kinetics of release of the chemokine monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated activation of human mast cells.
