METHOD FOR SCREENING ALLERGIC DISEASE-RELATED MOLECULE AND CELL LINE TO BE USED IN THE METHOD

摘要

An allergic disease-related substance is screened from candidate substances based on the reactivity to a plurality of cell lines, which are basophil-like or mast cell-like cell lines derived from the same spleen tissue and have different sensitivities to allergic cytokines. Further, an allergic disease-related substance is screened from candidate substances using at least one basophil-like or mast cell-like cell lines selected from the group consisting of R cell (Deposit No. FERM BP-10918), N 62.5 cell (Deposit No. FERM BP-10919) and RCCM cell (Deposit No. FERM BP-10920).
