This study evaluated human mast cell (hMC) development, distribution, and activation in CD34⁺ HSC-engrafted humanized mouse models. BRGSF mice supported hMC presence in skin, lung, and gut. hMCs expressed key markers including KIT, FcεRI, and MRGPRX2. Functional activity was confirmed via passive cutaneous anaphylaxis assay. Single-cell transcriptomics showed phenotypic diversity of engrafted hMCs.
BRGSF mice supported engraftment of functionally mature human mast cells in multiple tissues. hMCs showed appropriate surface marker expression and transcriptional heterogeneity, enabling in vivo study of mast cell biology and allergic responses.
