Figure Lengend Snippet: Mast cells were preincubated with U73122 (0.1 µM), Src I-1 (0.01 µM), LY294002 (50 µM) or medium alone for 1 h (none). Then, mast cells were treated with IgE at 5 µg/mL, washed and spontaneous (A), CCL5-induced (B) and TNF-induced (C) migration was examined in a Boyden microchamber. Bars for the positive controls demonstrate the same data set as in . Results are presented as the mean ± SEM of four independent experiments and each experiment was carried out in duplicate (n = 4). *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001.
