Abstract: A hybrid protein contains a protein that binds to a receptor of mastocytes and basophils and is endocyted by them. The protein can be IgE; IgE fragment; IgE Fc fragment; antibody against IgE receptor of mastocytes and basophils; fragment of the antibody against the IgE receptor of mastocytes and basophils; antibody against mastocyte specific potassium channel; and mast cell degranulating peptide. The hybrid protein also contains a protease cleaving proteins of the secretion process of the mastocytes and basophils so as to inhibit the secretion process without killing the mastocytes and basophils.
