IκB Kinase 2 Is Essential for IgE-Induced Mast Cell De Novo Cytokine Production but Not for Degranulation

The immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated mast cell (MC) response is central to the pathogenesis of type I allergy and asthma. IκB kinase 2 (IKK2) was reported to couple IgE-induced signals to MC degranulation by phosphorylating the SNARE protein SNAP23. We investigated MC responses in mice with MC-specif...
