Antigen-induced aggregation of the high affinity IgE receptor (FcepsilonRI) on mast cells induces degranulation to release chemical mediators, leading to acute allergic inflammation. We have demonstrated that the treatment of rat mast cells, RBL-2H3, with a phenoxazine derivative Phx-1 (2-amino-4,4alpha-dihydro-4alpha,7-dimethyl-3H-phenoxazine-3-one) suppresses the antigen-induced degranulation. Biochemical analysis reveals that the complementary signaling pathway through Gab2 and Akt is inhibited by this compound in mast cells. These findings suggest that phenoxazine derivatives may have a therapeutic potential for allergic diseases by inhibiting mast cell degranulation.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007073 Immunoglobulin E An immunoglobulin associated with MAST CELLS. Overexpression has been associated with allergic hypersensitivity (HYPERSENSITIVITY, IMMEDIATE). IgE
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

D000001 Calcimycin An ionophorous, polyether antibiotic from Streptomyces chartreusensis. It binds and transports CALCIUM and other divalent cations across membranes and uncouples oxidative phosphorylation while inhibiting ATPase of rat liver mitochondria. The substance is used mostly as a biochemical tool to study the role of divalent cations in various biological systems. 4-Benzoxazolecarboxylic acid, 5-(methylamino)-2-((3,9,11-trimethyl-8-(1-methyl-2-oxo-2-(1H-pyrrol-2-yl)ethyl)-1,7-dioxaspiro(5.5)undec-2-yl)methyl)-, (6S-(6alpha(2S*,3S*),8beta(R*),9beta,11alpha))-,A-23187,A23187,Antibiotic A23187,A 23187,A23187, Antibiotic
