Patients with mastocytosis have extra mast cells that can activate and release their mediators, in addition to the possibility of mast cells that may more readily release mediators, resulting in increased mediator-induced symptoms.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
