Fc epsilon RI signaling of mast cells activates intracellular production of hydrogen peroxide: role in the regulation of calcium signals.

چکیده
Earlier studies, including our own, revealed that activation of mast cells is accompanied by production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that help to mediate the release of the inflammatory mediators, including histamine and eicosanoids. However, little is known about the mechanisms of ROS production, including the species of oxidants produced. In this study we show that in both the RBL-2H3 mast cell line and bone marrow-derived mast cells, FcepsilonRI cross-linking stimulates intracellular oxidative burst, including hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) production, as defined with the oxidant-sensitive dyes dichlorofluorescein and scopoletin and the selective scavenger ebselen (2-phenyl-1,2-benzisoselenazol-3(2H)-one). The oxidative burst was observed immediately after stimulation and was most likely due to an NAD(P)H oxidase. Experiments using selective pharmacological inhibitors demonstrated that activation of tyrosine kinases and phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase is required for induction of the oxidative burst. Blockade of the oxidative burst by diphenyleneiodonium impaired the release of preformed granular mediators, such as histamine and beta-hexosaminidase, and the secretion of newly synthesized leukotriene C(4), whereas selective scavenging H(2)O(2) by ebselen impaired leukotriene C(4) secretion, but not degranulation. Sustained elevation of cytosolic calcium through store-operated calcium entry was totally abolished when ROS production was blocked. In contrast, selective depletion of H(2)O(2) caused a considerable decrease and delay of the calcium response. Finally, tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase Cgamma and the linker for activation of T cells, an event required for calcium influx, was suppressed by diphenyleneiodonium and ebselen. These studies demonstrate that activation of the intracellular oxidative burst is an important regulatory mechanism of mast cell responses.

Transfection of Syk protein tyrosine kinase reconstitutes high affinity IgE receptor-mediated degranulation in a Syk-negative variant of rat basophilic leukemia RBL-2H3 cells
Aggregation of the high affinity receptor for immunoglobulin E (Fc epsilon RI) on mast cells results in rapid tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of Syk, a cytoplasmic protein tyrosine kinase. To examine the role of Syk in the Fc epsilon RI signaling pathway, we identified a variant of RBL-2H3 cells that has no detectable Syk by immunoblotting and by in vitro kinase reactions. In these Syk-...
متن کاملSilver activates calcium signals in rat basophilic leukemia-2H3 mast cells by a mechanism that differs from the Fc epsilon RI-activated response.
We previously showed that silver stimulates degranulation and leukotriene (LT) C(4) production in rat basophilic leukemia mast cells and now show that silver induces these events by a mechanism that differs from the FcepsilonRI-mediated response. In common with FcepsilonRI cross-linking, silver induced tyrosine phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases and furthermore, PD98059, ...
متن کاملT cell receptor-independent CD2 signal transduction in FcR+ cells
CD2 subserves both adhesion and signal transduction functions in T cells, thymocytes, and natural killer (NK) cells. In mature T lymphocytes, CD2-mediated signaling function apparently requires surface expression of T cell receptors (TCRs). In contrast, in CD2+ CD3- NK cells and thymocytes, signal transduction through CD2 is TCR independent. To resolve this paradox and characterize TCR-independ...
متن کاملTransmembrane signaling in P815 mastocytoma cells by transfected IgE receptors.
In order to delineate structural-functional relationships of the mast cell receptor for IgE (Fc epsilon RI) by molecular-genetic analysis, a transfectable cell must be identified which resembles mast cells except for being deficient in receptors. We have found that the well known murine mastocytoma P815 is suitable. These cells express no Fc epsilon RI, lack mRNA for the alpha and beta subunits...
