title: Antigenic stimulated release of arachidonic acid, lipoxygenase activity and histamine release in a cloned murine mast cell MC9.
abstract: A cloned murine mast cell MC9 expresses phospholipase and lipoxygenase activity when stimulated with IgE and hapten. Addition of DNP-BSA to sensitized MC9 cells causes release of 58% of the cell histamine and 127 pmoles LTC4/10(6) cells. Prelabelling studies with [1-14C]-arachidonic acid showed that LTC4 production was proceeded by the release of arachidonic acid from membrane phospholipids. Approximately 8.7% of the cell arachidonic acid was released and half of this was converted to LTC4. The remaining radioactivity was converted to diHETES including LTB4 (15%), 5-HETE (10%), free arachidonic acid (10%), reesterified 5-HETE and arachidonic acid (8%) and prostaglandins (7%). This stimulation was dependent on hapten (DNP-BSA) and extracellular Ca++. Under identical conditions the calcium ionophore A23187 stimulated the release of 10.3% of the total cell arachidonic acid, and 51% of this was metabolized to LTC4. In addition the ionophore stimulated the release of 61% of the total cellular histamine.
