Among approximately 5600 genes, only 8 genes (shown on the upper 16 lines) were expressed greater than 10% of β-actin mRNA and were significantly increased (more than 2 times) in PB-derived MCs. In the lower lines, 6 mast cell-specific genes are shown. Thirteen pairs of the FcεRI β chain probes indicated that the mRNA is present and the remaining 7 probes indicated that it is absent, suggesting the presence of a splicing variant in the transcript.

F4-150

Average differences were obtained by subtracting the fluorescence intensities of mismatched microprobes from those of matched microprobes. Analysis using MCs without IL-4 priming gave similar results, except a lower FcεRIα-to-β-actin ratio (0.0718) in unprimed PB-derived MCs.
