| 21. | Like all circulating granulocytes, basophils can be recruited out of the blood into a tissue when needed.
|
| 22. | If the basophil level is elevated, high blood histamine can be confirmed with a blood histamine test.
|
| 23. | Eosinophils along with basophils and mast cells, are important mediators of oestrus cycling, allograft rejection and neoplasia.
|
| 24. | GM-CSF stimulates stem cells to produce granulocytes ( neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils ) and monocytes.
|
| 25. | These broadest categories can be further divided into the five main types : basophils, lymphocytes, and monocytes.
|
| 26. | There are other substances that can activate basophils to secrete which suggests that these cells have other roles in inflammation.
|
| 27. | The most important pathophysiologic mechanism of mast cell and basophil histamine release is degranulate when exposed to the appropriate antigen.
|
| 28. | The VCAM-1 protein mediates the adhesion of lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils to vascular endothelium.
|
| 29. | FPL3 is expressed by circulating monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils but not neutrophils; tissue macrophages and dendritic cells.
|
| 30. | Siglec-8 is expressed by human eosinophils, mast cells, and, to a lesser extent, basophils.
