AB For  more  than  a  century  physicians  have  noted  a  clear  connection  between  mast  cell  (MC)  activation  and  the  subsequent  appearance  of  eosinophils  both  within  the  circulation  and  in  tissues.  Only  recently,  however,  have  basic  insights  been  gained  into  the  mechanisms  of  this  cellular  collusion.  In  keeping  with  this  association,  human  MCs  and  eosinophils  are  considered  together  in  this  chapter.
