Area of Research
The aim of our research is to provide optimal care for patients with mast cell-associated diseases such as mastocytosis, urticaria and atopic dermatitis. Mast cells are important effector cells in allergies and regulate immunological processes in inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases and tumors. Pathologic mast cell proliferation is seen in diverse conditions including mastocytosis, urticaria and atopic dermatitis. We investigate their pathogenesis and develop new diagnostic and therapeutic options for these diseases.
