Role of cardiac mast cells in complement C5a-induced myocardial ischemia

Role of cardiac mast cells in complement C5a-induced myocardial ischemia

Blood cells are not involved in either the mediator release or the myocardial effects of C5a, suggesting that a C5a-sensitive, cardiac resident inflammatory cell is responsible. The role of cardiac mast cells in C5a-induced myocardial ischemia is discussed.
