Abstract:
Upregulation of CGRP-immunoreactive (IR) primary afferent nerve fibers accompanied by mastocytosisis characteristic for the Schistosoma mansoni-infected murineileum. These mucosal mast cells (MMC) and CGRP-IR fibers whichoriginate from dorsal root Keywords:
calcium imaging; electrophysiology; cultured mucosal mast cells;
cultured dorsal root ganglia neurons; mast cell juice Materials & Methods:
Adult mouse DRG neurons were isolated as
previously described (33). First animals were anesthetized by an
overdose of ether and bled from the abdominal aorta. Next the spinal
cord was isolated and the ganglia dissected using microforceps. After
