In basophils, mast cells, and the RBL-2H3 tumor mast cell line, cross-linking the high-affinity immunoglobulin E receptor (Fc epsilon R1) stimulates a series of responses, particularly the activation of phospholipase C (PLC), that lead to allergic and other immediate hypersensitivity reactions. The mechanism of activation of PLC, however, is not clear. Here, we show that cross-linking Fc epsilon R1 on RBL-2H3 cells causes the tyrosine phosphorylation of at least 12 cellular proteins, including PLC gamma 1 (PLC gamma 1) and the receptor beta and gamma subunits. 32P-labeled PLC gamma 1 can be detected by anti-phosphotyrosine antibody as early as 10 s after the addition of antigen. The tyrosine-phosphorylated 33-kDa beta subunit and 9- to 11-kDa gamma subunit of the Fc epsilon R1 are additionally phosphorylated on serine and theonine residues, respectively, and are found as complexes with other phosphotyrosine-containing proteins in antigen-stimulated cells. Our results indicate a means by which the Fc epsilon R1 may control PLC activity in RBL-2H3 cells and raise the possibility that other receptor-mediated signalling events in mast cells may also be controlled through protein tyrosine phosphorylation.

Tyrosine phosphorylation of several cellular proteins is one of the earliest signaling events induced by cross-linking of the high-affinity receptor for immunoglobulin E (Fc epsilon RI) on mast cells or basophils. Tyrosine kinases activated during this process include the Src family kinases, Lyn, c-Yes, and c-Src, and members of another subfamily, Syk and PTK72 (identical or highly related to Syk). Recently, some of us described two novel tyrosine kinases, Emb and Emt, whose expression was limited to subsets of hematopoietic cells, including mast cells. Emb turned out to be identical to Btk, a gene product defective in human X-linked agammaglobulinemia and in X-linked immunodeficient (xid) mice. Here we report that Fc epsilon RI cross-linking induced rapid phosphorylation on tyrosine, serine, and threonine residues and activation of Btk in mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells. A small fraction of Btk translocated from the cytosol to the membrane compartment following receptor cross-linking. Tyrosine phosphorylation of Btk was not induced by either a Ca2+ ionophore (A23187), phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, or a combination of the two reagents. Co-immunoprecipitation between Btk and receptor subunit beta or gamma was not detected. The data collectively suggest that Btk is not associated with Fc epsilon but that its activation takes place prior to protein kinase C activation and plays a novel role in the Fc epsilon RI signaling pathway.

The possible involvement of G-proteins in T cell antigen-receptor complex (TCR)-mediated inositol phosphate production was investigated in HPB-ALL T-cells, which were found to express the phospholipase C gamma 1 and beta 3 isoforms. Cross-linking the CD3 antigen on streptolysin-O-permeabilized cells stimulated a dose-dependent increase in inositol phosphate production, as did addition of guanosine 5′-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) or vanadate, a phosphotyrosine phosphatase inhibitor. It was possible, therefore, that the CD3-antigen-mediated production of inositol phosphates was either via a G-protein-dependent mechanism or by stimulation of protein tyrosine phosphorylation. The CD3-induced inositol phosphate production was potentiated by addition of vanadate, but not by addition of GTP[S]. Guanosine 5′-[beta-thio]diphosphate (GDP[S]) inhibited the rise in inositol phosphates induced by GTP[S], vanadate or cross-linking the CD3 antigen. The increase in protein tyrosine phosphorylation stimulated by vanadate or the OKT3 monoclonal antibody was not observed in the presence of GDP[S], showing that in permeabilized HPB-ALL cells, GDP[S] inhibits the actions of tyrosine kinases as well as G-protein function. Addition of either ADP[S] or phenylarsine oxide inhibited CD3- and vanadate-mediated increases in both tyrosine phosphorylation and inositol phosphate production, but did not inhibit GTP[S]-stimulated inositol phosphate production. On the other hand, pretreatment of cells with phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate inhibited subsequent GTP[S]-stimulated inositol phosphate production but did not inhibit significantly inositol phosphate production stimulated by either OKT3 F(ab')2 fragments or vanadate. Our results are consistent with the CD3 antigen stimulating inositol phosphate production by increasing the level of protein tyrosine phosphorylation, but not by activating a G-protein.

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-deficient TB1A2 cells, aggregation of Fc epsilon RI induced no histamine release and no detectable increase in total cellular protein tyrosine phosphorylation. However, stimulation of these cells with the calcium ionophore did induce degranulation. Fc epsilon RI aggregation induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the beta and gamma subunits of the receptor, but no increase in the tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma 1 and phospholipase C-gamma 2 and no detectable increase in intracellular free Ca2+ concentration. By transfection, cloned lines were established with stable expression of Syk. In these reconstituted cells, Fc epsilon RI aggregation induced tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma 1 and phospholipase C-gamma 2, an increase in intracellular free Ca2+ and histamine release. These results demonstrate that Syk plays a critical role in the early Fc epsilon RI-mediated signaling events. It further demonstrates that Syk activation occurs downstream of receptor phosphorylation, but upstream of most of the Fc epsilon RI-mediated protein tyrosine phosphorylations.

Background/Aims: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are critical regulators of immune responses and immunologic disorders. However, little is known about miRNA expression and function during mast cell differentiation, proliferation and activation. This study aimed to determine the miRNA expression profiles in mast cells stimulated by immunoglobulin E (IgE) and antigen and to analyze the potential functions of specific miRNAs. Methods: Bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs) generated from differentiated mouse bone marrow cells were untreated (Unstimu) or stimulated with IgE-antigen complexes for 1 h or 6 h (Stimu). The miRNA profiles were evaluated by miRNA microarray. MiRNA target gene prediction and enrichment analyses were performed using bioinformatics. Results: Seven significantly up-regulated and 10 down-regulated miRNAs were identified in the 1 h Stimu group relative to the Unstimu group (fold change>2; P<0.05). Of 8 miRNAs randomly selected from the 17 identified, the expression levels of 6 were confirmed by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). The potential target genes of several candidate miRNAs were enriched in FcεRI signaling, response to stimulus and cellular exocytosis. Conclusion: The expression of many miRNAs changes following IgE-FcεRI cross-linking in activated mast cells, and these miRNAs probably play key regulatory roles in core signaling pathways and biological behaviors. Evaluating the functions of these characteristic miRNAs will further our understanding of IgE-associated allergic disease pathogenesis and the development of therapeutic strategies.

Antigen-mediated aggregation of the high-affinity receptor for immunoglobulin E, Fc epsilon RI, results in the activation of multiple signaling pathways, leading to the release of mediators of the allergic response. One of the earliest responses to receptor stimulation is the tyrosine phosphorylation of the beta and gamma subunits of Fc epsilon RI and the association of the tyrosine kinase Syk with the phosphorylated receptor. This association is mediated by the SH2 domains of Syk and is believed to be critical for activating signaling pathways resulting in mediator release. To examine the importance of the interaction of Syk with Fc epsilon RI in signaling events following receptor activation, we introduced a protein containing the SH2 domains of Syk into streptolysin O-permeabilized RBL-2H3 cells. The Syk SH2 domains completely inhibited degranulation and leukotriene production following receptor aggregation, and they blocked the increase in protein tyrosine phosphorylation observed after receptor activation. Inhibition was specific for Fc epsilon RI-mediated signaling, since degranulation of cells activated by alternative stimuli was not blocked by the Syk SH2 domains. A protein containing a point mutation in the carboxy-terminal SH2 domain which abolishes phosphotyrosine binding was not inhibitory. In addition, inhibition of degranulation was reversed by pretreatment of the SH2 domains with a tyrosine phosphorylated peptide corresponding to the tyrosine-based activation motif found in the gamma subunit of Fc epsilon RI, the nonphosphorylated peptide had no effect. The association of Syk with the tyrosine-phosphorylated gamma subunit of the activated receptor was blocked by the Syk SH2 domains, and deregulation in cells activated by clustering of Syk directly without Fc epsilon RI aggregation was not affected by the Syk SH2 domains. These results demonstrate that the association of Syk with the activated Fc epsilon RI is critical for both early and late events following receptor activation and confirm the key role Syk plays in signaling through the high-affinity IgE receptor.

Enhancement of cellular phospholipase D (PLD)-1 and phospholipase C (PLC)-mediated hydrolysis of endogenous phosphatidylcholine (PC) during receptor-mediated cell activation has received increasing attention inasmuch as both enzymes can result in the formation of 1,2-diacylglycerol (DAG). The activities of PLD and PLC were examined in purified mast cells by quantitating the mass of the water-soluble hydrolysis products choline and phosphorylcholine, respectively. Using an assay based on choline kinase-mediated phosphorylation of choline that is capable of measuring choline and phosphorylcholine in the low picomole range, we quantitated the masses of both cell-associated and extracellular choline and phosphorylcholine. Activating mast cells by crosslinking its immunoglobulin E receptor (Fc epsilon-RI) resulted in an increase in cellular choline from 13.1 +/- 1.2 pmol/10(6) mast cells (mean +/- SE in unstimulated cells) to levels 5- to 10-fold higher, peaking 20 s after stimulation and rapidly returning toward baseline. The increase in cellular choline mass paralleled the increase in labeled phosphatidic acid accumulation detected in stimulated cells prelabeled with [3H]palmitic acid and preceded the increase in labeled DAG. Although intracellular phosphorylcholine levels were approximately 15-fold greater than choline in unstimulated cells (182 +/- 19 pmol/10(6) mast cells), stimulation resulted in a significant fall in phosphorylcholine levels shortly after stimulation. Pulse chase experiments demonstrated that the receptor-dependent increase in intracellular choline and the fall in phosphorylcholine were not due to hydrolysis of intracellular phosphorylcholine and suggested a receptor-dependent increase in PC resynthesis. When the extracellular medium was examined for the presence of water-soluble products of PC hydrolysis, receptor-dependent increases in the mass of both choline and phosphorylcholine were observed. Labeling studies demonstrated that these extracellular increases were not the result of leakage of these compounds from the cytosol. Taken together, these data lend support for a quantitatively greater role for receptor-mediated PC-PLD compared with PC-PLC during activation of mast cells.
