Description: Average IC50 (n=3)
Immunopharmacology Comments
Two structurally similar isoforms of PLCγ are expressed by mast cells (PLCγ1 and PLCγ2). Both are important enzymes in the integrated signalling pathways leading to mast cell activation [2,5], although PLCγ1 may be the predominant isoform active in human mast cells [6].
