Differential calcium effects on prostaglandin D2 generation and histamine release from isolated rat peritoneal mast cells.
We examined the role of Ca2+ mobilization in prostaglandin (PG) D2 generation and histamine release induced by A23187 from rat peritoneal mast cells. Both PGD2 generation and histamine release accompanied with 45Ca uptake were observed above 0.1 microM A23187. Although an increase of PGD2 generation was not exactly correlated with that of Ca2+ uptake, histamine release occurred in proportion to Ca2+ uptake. In contrast to PGD2 generation, below 0.1 microM A23187, about 20% of the total histamine was released without Ca2+ uptake and this response was inhibited by 10 microM 8-(N,N-diethylamino)-octyl-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate hydrochloride (TMB-8), which is an intracellular Ca2+ antagonist. However, TMB-8 had no effect on PGD2 generation. These results suggest that Ca2+ dependency of histamine release is clearly different from that of PGD2 generation, and that histamine release is induced by not only Ca2+ uptake but also intracellular Ca2+ mobilization.
