To: [email protected] This from Wikipedia: A mast cell (or mastocyte) is a resident cell of several types of tissues and contains many granules rich in histamine and heparin. Although best known for their role in allergy and anaphylaxis, mast cells play an important protective role as well, being intimately involved in wound healing and defense against pathogens.[1] From: Dianne France <[email protected]> To: silver-list <[email protected]> Sent: Sat, December 5, 2009 10:26:52 AM Subject: CS>OT - masks in bone marrow? I received an update on a friend and don't understand what they are talking about when they say "masks in bone marrow." I tried looking it up without success. The following is part of the email: "Dwayne's blast level is zero, and in in remission thanks to the chemo, but he still has pneumonia in both lungs and that is getting better slowly, plus he now has high level of "Masks" in his bone morrow. They will no more how to treat it Tuesday when the test results come back. I am not sure exactly what these masks are and how it affects his cancer." Could someone help me understand what this means.
