title: Immunohistochemical localization of spleen-type prostaglandin D synthetase in rat nasal mucosa.
abstract: Using the specific antibody of spleen-type prostaglandin D synthetase, we investigated the immunohistochemical localization of this enzyme in rat nasal mucosa. The excised tissues were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and immunohistochemically stained by the peroxidase-antiperoxidase method. Formalin-resistant connective tissue mast cells were positive for spleen-type prostaglandin D synthetase.
