Abstract excerpt

Glycoconjugate expression by human tissue mast cells (MCs) from various sources (including lymph nodes with signs of chronic non-specific lymphadenitis, skin lesions of urticaria pigmentosa, and bone marrow infiltrates associated with systemic mastocytosis) was studied histochemically with a broa...
