ABSTRACT
Chronic allergic inflammatory reactions involve the infiltration and participation of many different cell types. Although it has been evident for many years that tissue specific mast cells have a primary role in the early stages of these reactions, recent studies indicated that, in addition to mast cells response, a later reaction which selectively recruits the circulating lymphocytes, eosinophils and basophils to the site of inflammation, is the hallmark for the progression of allergic diseases.
