Figure 2From: IgE alone promotes human lung mast cell survival through the autocrine production of IL-6Monomeric IgE induces the upregulation of IL-6 mRNA transcription in freshly isolated human lung mast cells. Human lung mast cell IL-6 mRNA expression was determined using comparative quantitative real time RT-PCR and upregulation of expression was confirmed using three different algorithms for calculation of results.Back to article page
