The herbal formulation Sinpo-Tang (SPT) has long been used for various allergic diseases. We investigated the effect of SPT on the mast cell-mediated anaphylactic reactions in vivo and in vitro murine models. SPT dose dependently inhibited compound 48/80-induced ear swelling response and histamine release. SPT (0.001-0.1g/kg) significantly inhibited passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA). The mast cell number was markedly decreased at the SPT-treated PCA site. In addition, SPT decreased intracellular calcium levels of activated mast cells. These results suggest that SPT inhibit the anaphylactic degranulation of mast cells through decrease of the intracellular calcium level.

D007723 Korea Former kingdom, located on Korea Peninsula between Sea of Japan and Yellow Sea on east coast of Asia. In 1948, the kingdom ceased and two independent countries were formed, divided by the 38th parallel.
D008407 Mast Cells Granulated cells that are found in almost all tissues, most abundantly in the skin and the gastrointestinal tract. Like the BASOPHILS, mast cells contain large amounts of HISTAMINE and HEPARIN. Unlike basophils, mast cells normally remain in the tissues and do not circulate in the blood. Mast cells, derived from the bone marrow stem cells, are regulated by the STEM CELL FACTOR. Basophils, Tissue,Basophil, Tissue,Cell, Mast,Cells, Mast,Mast Cell,Tissue Basophil,Tissue Basophils

D010323 Passive Cutaneous Anaphylaxis An evanescent cutaneous reaction occurring when antibody is injected into a local area on the skin and antigen is subsequently injected intravenously along with a dye. The dye makes the rapidly occurring capillary dilatation and increased vascular permeability readily visible by leakage into the reaction site. PCA is a sensitive reaction for detecting very small quantities of antibodies and is also a method for studying the mechanisms of immediate hypersensitivity.
