Mast cells play a key role in the inflammatory process. When activated, a mast cell can either selectively release (piecemeal degranulation) or rapidly release (anaphylactic degranulation) mediators, or compounds that induce inflammation, from storage granules into the local microenvironment.
Mast cells are found in most tissues of the body, particularly in locations that are in close contact with the external environment, such as skin, airways, and intestines. They are, therefore, ideally placed to participate in the early recognition of pathogens.
