title: Fc epsilon receptors.
abstract: Advances in our understanding of the molecular structure of Fc receptors have been made at a rapid pace. Details of how Fc receptors are involved in cell triggering, e.g. allergic mediator release from mast cells, and IgE synthesis are also continuing to be elucidated, although much work is still required. Recent highlights of investigations of mast-cell and lymphocyte IgE Fc receptors will be outlined.
