Abstract
Fibromyalgia is a painful disorder of unknown aetiology that presents activation and recruitment of innate immune cells, including mast cells. Efforts have been made to understand its pathogenesis to manage it better. Thus, we explored the involvement of peripheral mast cells in an experimental model of fibromyalgia induced by reserpine. Reserpine (1 mg/kg) was subcutaneously (s.c.) injected once daily in the back of male Swiss mice for three consecutive days. We analysed mechanical and cold allodynia, muscle fatigue and number of mast cell in plantar tissue. The fibromyalgia induction produced mast cell infiltration (i.e., mastocytosis) in the mice's plantar tissue. The depletion of mast cell mediators with the compound 48/80 (0.5-4 mg/kg, intraperitoneal (i.p.)) or the mast cell membrane stabilizer ketotifen fumarate (10 mg/kg, oral route (p.o.) widely (80-90 %) and extensively (from 1 up to 10 days) prevented reserpine-induced mechanical and cold allodynia and muscle fatigue. Compound 48/80 also prevented the reserpine-induced mastocytosis. Finally, we demonstrated that PAR-2, 5-HT2A, 5-HT3, H1, NK1 and MrgprB2 receptors, expressed in neuronal or mast cells, seem crucial to mediate fibromyalgia-related cardinal symptoms since antagonists or inhibitors of these receptors (gabexate (10 mg/kg, s.c.), ENMD-1068 (10 mg/kg, i.p.), ketanserin (1 mg/kg, i.p.), ondansetron (1 mg/kg, p.o.), promethazine (1 mg/kg, i.p.), and L733,060 (5 mg/kg, s.c.), respectively) transiently reversed the reserpine-induced allodynia and fatigue. The results indicate that mast cells mediate painful and fatigue behaviours in this fibromyalgia model, representing potential therapy targets to treat fibromyalgia syndrome.

Abstract
In this paper, we clarify the interfacial pH behavior induced by allergic responses at a mast cell/gate insulator nanogap detected by laser scanning confocal fluorescence microscopy. In a previous work, the change in interfacial pH detected on the basis of allergic responses was monitored at a mast cell/gate insulator nanogap interface using a cell-cultured gate ion-sensitive field-effect transistor (ISFET), but the interfacial pH behavior at a mast cell/gate insulator nanogap has not been clarified using other methods. Here, the phospholipid fluorescein is employed as the extracellular pH indicator, which is fixed to the external side of the plasma membrane of mast cells cultured on a substrate. As a result, the interfacial pH at the mast cell/substrate nanogap increases after mast cells with IgE on their membrane are activated by the interaction between IgE and an allergen. This is due to the basicity of histamine molecules released from mast cells. Moreover, the change in the interfacial pH at the mast cell/substrate nanogap is larger than that at the mast cell/bulk solution interface. That is, molecules of substances secreted as a result of allergic responses are assumed to accumulate around the cell/substrate nanogap. The data obtained in this study support the idea that potentiometric ion sensors such as ISFETs can detect a cellular-function-induced change in pH at a cell/electrode nanogap in real time.

Abstract
Non-invasive real time evaluation of living cell conditions and functions are increasingly desired in the field of clinical diagnosis. For diagnosis of type I allergy, the identification of antigens that induces activation of mast cells and basophils is crucial to avoid symptoms of allergic diseases. However, conventional tests, such as detection of antigen-specific IgE antibody and skin tests, are either of low reliability or are invasive. To overcome such problems, we hereby applied an impedance sensor for label-free and real-time monitoring of mast cell reactions in response to stimuli. When IgE-sensitized RBL-2H3 cells cultured on the electrodes were stimulated with various concentrations of antigens, dose-dependent cell index (CI) increases were detected. Moreover, we confirmed that the impedance sensor detected morphological changes rather than degranulation as the indicator of cell activation. Furthermore, the CI of human IgE receptor-expressing cells (RBL-48 cells) treated with serum of a sweat allergy-positive patient, but not with serum from a sweat allergy-negative patient, significantly increased in response to purified human sweat antigen. We thus developed a technique to detect the activation of living cells in response to stimuli without any labeling using the impedance sensor. This system may represent a high reliable tool for the diagnosis of type I allergy.

Abstract
Gluten-containing cereals are a main food staple present in the daily human diet, including wheat, barley, and rye. Gluten intake is associated with the development of celiac disease (CD) and related disorders such as diabetes mellitus type I, depression, and schizophrenia. However, until now, there is no consent about the possible deleterious effects of gluten intake because of often failing symptoms even in persons with proven CD. Asymptomatic CD (ACD) is present in the majority of affected patients and is characterized by the absence of classical gluten-intolerance signs, such as diarrhea, bloating, and abdominal pain. Nevertheless, these individuals very often develop diseases that can be related with gluten intake. Gluten can be degraded into several morphine-like substances, named gluten exorphins. These compounds have proven opioid effects and could mask the deleterious effects of gluten protein on gastrointestinal lining and function. Here we describe a putative mechanism, explaining how gluten could "mask" its own toxicity by exorphins that are produced through gluten protein digestion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with complex regional pain syndrome have increased tryptase in the skin of the affected extremity indicating mast cell (MC) accumulation and degranulation, processes known to be mediated by substance P (SP). The dysregulation of SP release from primary afferent neurons is characteristic of complex regional pain syndrome. The authors hypothesized that SP acting through the neurokinin-1 receptor results in mast cell accumulation, degranulation, and nociceptive sensitization in a rat model of complex regional pain syndrome. METHODS Groups of 6-10 rats underwent tibia fracture and hind limb casting for 4 weeks, and the hind paw skin was harvested for histologic and immunohistochemical analysis. The effects of a selective neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist (LY303870) and of direct SP intraplantar injection were measured. Dermal MC degranulation induced by sciatic nerve stimulation and the effects of LY303870 on this process were investigated. Finally, the antinociceptive effects of acute and chronic treatment with a MC degranulator (48/80) were tested. RESULTS The authors observed that fracture caused MC accumulation, activation, and degranulation, which were inhibited by LY303870; the percentage of MCs in close proximity to peptidergic nerve fibers increased after fracture; electrical stimulation caused MC activation and degranulation, which was blocked by LY303870; intraplantar SP-induced MC degranulation and acute administration of 48/80 caused MC degranulation and enhanced postfracture nociception, but MC-depleted animals showed less sensitization. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate that facilitated peptidergic neuron-MC signaling after fracture can cause MC accumulation, activation, and degranulation in the injured limb, resulting in nociceptive sensitization.

Abstract
In mast cells, crosslinking the high-affinity IgE receptor (FcɛRI) results in a dynamic reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton that is associated with membrane ruffling. Although the signaling involved in degranulation has been well described, it is less understood in morphological changes. In this study, we investigated the specific role of conventional protein kinase C (cPKC), a crucial signal for degranulation, in antigen-induced membrane ruffling of mast cells. In RBL-2H3 mast cells, antigen induced a long-lasting membrane ruffling, which was blocked with late-added Gö6976, a specific cPKC inhibitor, indicating that sustained activation of cPKC is required for maintaining the reaction. Immunofluorescence staining of endogenous PKCα/β and real-time imaging of transfected green fluorescent protein-tagged PKCα/β demonstrated that in response to antigen both PKCα and PKCβI quickly translocated to the plasma membrane and were colocalized with actin filaments at the ruffling sites. These reactions were blocked by expression of kinase-negative PKCβI, but not kinase-negative PKCα, and by treatment with a specific PKCβ inhibitor, LY333531. The adhesion, spreading and membrane ruffling of mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs), which are mostly nonadhesive, were promoted by both antigen and thymeleatoxin. Treatment with Gö6976 abolished all these reactions. Antigen-mediated migration of BMMC was also sensitive to Gö6076 and LY333531. In addition, BMMC adhesion by and migration toward stem cell factor were shown to be dependent on cPKC. Thus, cPKC, at least PKCβ subtype, may be critical for the dynamic morphological changes that lead to the migration of mast cells.
