## Abstract Caldesmon (CaD), a component of microfilaments in all cells and thin filaments in smooth muscle cells, is known to bind to actin, tropomyosin, calmodulin, and myosin and to inhibit actin‐activated ATP hydrolysis by smooth muscle myosin. Thus, it is believed to regulate smooth muscle con

Mast cells (MC) are anatomically located near nerves and blood vessels in skin and the gastrointestinal tract and tend to localize within certain cutaneous tumors such as neurofibromas. However, the molecular mechanisms by which MC home to these sites are not well characterized. Fractalkine (FK) is

## Abstract We have demonstrated that CD34^+^ IFN‐γ‐treated human mast cells (HuMC) express functional FcγRI and that aggregation of these receptors leads to mediator release. As the signaling pathways linking FcγRI aggregation to mediator release are unknown, we examined FcγRI‐dependent activation
