Eosinophils and parasites: more than just effector cells Summer IES webinar, held on June 30th (9:30-11:00 am ET, 3:30-5:00 pm CET) will be dedicated to eosinophils and COVID-19. www.eosinophil-society.org/educational-opportunities/virtual-seminar-forum
Summary Tissue resident mast cells (MCs) rapidly initiate neutrophil infiltration upon inflammatory insult, yet the molecular mechanism is still unknown. Here, we demonstrated that MC-derived tumor necrosis factor (TNF) was crucial for neutrophil extravasation to sites of contact hypersensitivity-induced skin inflammation by promoting intraluminal crawling.

Summary B lymphocytes are among the cell types whose effector functions are modulated by mast cells (MCs). The B/MC crosstalk emerged in several pathological settings, notably the colon of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients is a privileged site in which MCs and IgA+ cells physically
