Cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal calf serum, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 1% MEM non-essential amino acids, 2 mM l-glutamine, 100 µg/ml streptomycin, 100 U/ml penicillin, 10 µg/ml gentamicin, 55 µM 2-mercaptoethanol, and 10 mM HEPES buffer (complete RPMI). Isolated human mast cells were cultured in the presence of human SCF (20 ng/ml, Shenandoah Biotechnology). Mast cell phenotypes were assessed by flow cytometry (c-Kit+FcεRIα+) and chloroacetate esterase staining.
