Effect of Anatomical Distribution of Mast Cells on Their Defense Function against Bacterial Infections: Demonstration Using Partially Mast Cell–deficient tg/tg Mice

Mast cells were depleted in the peritoneal cavity of WBB6F(1)-tg/tg mice that did not express a transcription factor, MITF. When acute bacterial peritonitis was induced in WBB6F(1)-+/+, WBB6F(1)-W/W (v), and WBB6F(1)-tg/tg mice, the proportion of surviving WBB6F(1)-+/+ mice was significantly higher...
