Beta-adrenergic and prostanoid inhibition of canine fundic mucosal mast cells

Abstract: We examined regulation of histamine release from canine hepatic and fundic mucosal mast cells in short-term culture. We found that beta- but not alpha-adrenergic agonists markedly inhibited concanavalin A (ConA)-stimulated histamine release. Inhibition by epinephrine was reversed by the beta-antagonist propranolol, but not by the alpha-adrenergic antagonists phentolamine or yohimbine. The beta 2-selective antagonist ICI 115881 reversed the effects of epinephrine, whereas the beta 1-antagonists practolol and be… Show more

“…In studies describing an inhibitory effect for PGE 2 on histamine release, mast cells were preincubated with PGE 2 for Ն5 min before the addition of the other stimuli (19,21); whereas, in experiments where PGE 2 potentiated mast cell degranulation, concurrent activation with PGE 2 and the secretagogue was employed (12,18, and this study). Cyclic AMP has been implicated as the second messenger mediating PGE 2 -directed inhibition of degranulation (21,45,46). Conversely, increased Ca 2ϩ rather than cAMP was implicated in a study where degranulation was potentiated by PGE 2 (12), and these observations are not surprising considering the absolute requirement for increased intracellular Ca 2ϩ in the induction of mast cell degranulation (47).…”

“…Consistent with earlier data on human mast cells reported by Cohan et al , 189 we did not observe a biologically significant effect of the corticosteroid dexamethasone on histamine release from canine skin mast cells 171 . In contrast, salbutamol, a β 2 ‐receptor agonist, exerted a weak inhibitory effect on IgE‐dependent histamine release from isolated canine cutaneous mast cells 183 and human cutaneous mast cells, 177 suggesting that a functional β ‐adrenergic receptor is coupled to mast cell populations 190 . This inhibitory effect was particularly obvious when lung mast cells, rather than those from skin, from both humans and dogs were exposed to the β 2 ‐receptor agonist 184,191 .…”

“…171 In contrast, salbutamol, a b 2 -receptor agonist, exerted a weak inhibitory effect on IgE-dependent histamine release from isolated canine cutaneous mast cells 183 and human cutaneous mast cells, 177 suggesting that a functional badrenergic receptor is coupled to mast cell populations. 190 This inhibitory effect was particularly obvious when lung mast cells, rather than those from skin, from both humans and dogs were exposed to the b 2 -receptor agonist. 184,191 This blockade might partly account for the efficacy of such drugs in the treatment of allergic asthma.…”

“…Isolated fundic soma tostatin-containing D cells release somatostatin via Padrenoceptor-mediated mechanisms [24], Activation of p-adrenoceptors increases gastrin release from isolated vascularly perfused rat stomach [25] and from rat antral mucosal fragments [26], Furthermore, P-adrenoceptor ag onists have been shown to decrease the release of hista mine from isolated canine fundic mast cells [27], The presence of P-adrenoceptors on parietal cells and nonpar ietal cells may contribute to the increase or decrease in gastric acid secretion in vivo. Conflicting results on the roles of gastric P-adrenoceptors in the regulation of gastric acid secretion were therefore due probably to inhibition and stimulation of nonparietal and parietal cell functions by activation of P-adrenoceptors.…”
