Abstract
Signal transduction by the high-affinity IgE receptor (FcεRI) depends on membrane lipid and protein compartmentalization. Recently published data show that cells treated with 1-heptanol, a cell membrane fluidizer, exhibit changes in membrane properties. However, the functional consequences of 1-heptanol-induced changes on mast cell signaling are unknown. This study shows that short-term exposure to 1-heptanol reduces membrane thermal stability and dysregulates mast cell signaling at multiple levels. Cells treated with 1-heptanol exhibited increased lateral mobility and decreased internalization of the FcεRI. However, this did not affect the initial phosphorylation of the FcεRI-β chain and components of the SYK/LAT1/PLCγ1 signaling pathway after antigen activation. In contrast, 1-heptanol inhibited SAPK/JNK phosphorylation and effector functions such as calcium response, degranulation, and cytokine production. Membrane hyperfluidization induced a heat shock-like response via increased expression of the heat shock protein 70, increased lateral diffusion of ORAI1-mCherry, and unsatisfactory performance of STIM1-ORAI1 coupling, as determined by flow-FRET. Furthermore, 1-heptanol inhibited the antigen-induced production of reactive oxygen species and potentiated stress-induced plasma membrane permeability by interfering with heat shock protein 70 activity. The combined data suggest that 1-heptanol-mediated membrane fluidization does not interfere with the earliest biochemical steps of FcεRI signaling, such as phosphorylation of the FcεRI-β chain and components of the SYK/LAT/PLCγ1 signaling pathway, instead inhibiting the FcεRI internalization and mast cell effector functions, including degranulation and cytokine production.

Abstract
Heatstroke can cause multiple organ failure and systemic inflammatory response syndrome as the body temperature rises beyond the body's ability to regulate temperature in a hot environment. Previous studies have indicated that heatstroke-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) can lead to chronic kidney disease. Therefore, there is an urgent need to elucidate the mechanism of heatstroke-induced AKI and to establish methods for its prevention and treatment. Recent reports have revealed that innate immunity, including neutrophils, macrophages, lymphocytes, and mast cells, is deeply involved in heat-induced AKI. In this review, we will discuss the roles of each immune cell in heat-induced renal injury and their potential therapeutic use.

Abstract
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have various applications in biomedicine, including imaging, drug delivery and release, genetic modification, cell guidance, and patterning. By combining MNPs with polymers, magnetic nanocomposites (MNCs) with diverse morphologies (core-shell particles, matrix-dispersed particles, microspheres, etc.) can be generated. These MNCs retain the ability of MNPs to be controlled remotely using external magnetic fields. While the effects of these biomaterials on the cell biology are still poorly understood, such information can help the biophysical modulation of various cellular functions, including proliferation, adhesion, and differentiation. After recalling the basic properties of MNPs and polymers, and describing their coassembly into nanocomposites, this review focuses on how polymeric MNCs can be used in several ways to affect cell behavior. A special emphasis is given to 3D cell culture models and transplantable grafts, which are used for regenerative medicine, underlining the impact of MNCs in regulating stem cell differentiation and engineering living tissues. Recent advances in the use of MNCs for tissue regeneration are critically discussed, particularly with regard to their prospective involvement in human therapy and in the construction of advanced functional materials such as magnetically operated biomedical robots.

Abstract
The remote control of cellular functions through smart nanomaterials represents a biomanipulation approach with unprecedented potential applications in many fields of medicine, ranging from cancer therapy to tissue engineering. By actively responding to external stimuli, smart nanomaterials act as real nanotransducers able to mediate and/or convert different forms of energy into both physical and chemical cues, fostering specific cell behaviors. This report describes those classes of nanomaterials that have mostly paved the way to a "wireless" control of biological phenomena, focusing the discussion on some examples close to the clinical practice. In particular, magnetic fields, light irradiation, ultrasound, and pH will be presented as means to manipulate the cellular fate, due to the peculiar physical/chemical properties of some smart nanoparticles, thus providing realistic examples of "nanorobots" approaching the visionary ideas of Richard Feynman.

Effects of a Moderately Lower Temperature on the Proliferation and Degranulation of Rat Mast Cells. J Immunol Res 2016; 2016:8439594.

Abstract
Mast cells are traditionally considered as key effector cells in IgE-mediated allergic diseases. However, the roles of mast cells have also been implicated in diverse physiological and pathological processes. Mast cells are distributed in various organs and tissues of various species. Some of the organs and tissues, such as testis, skin, and the upper part of the respiratory tract, have a temperature that is lower than the body's core temperature. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of a lower temperature on the proliferation and degranulation of rat mast cells. Here, we demonstrate that cell growth was retarded at 35°C compared to 37°C for both rat peritoneal mast cells (RPMC) and RBL-2H3, a rat mast cell line. Furthermore, RPMC became more susceptible to degranulation at 35°C compared to 37°C. In contrast, degranulation of RBL-2H3 was not as sensitive to temperature change as RPMC. The functionality of mast cells in unique organs with a lower temperature warrants further analysis.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a multicomponent disease characterized by emphysema and/or chronic bronchitis. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cigarette smoke exposure on mast cells and mast cell function in vitro and in vivo in order to get further insight in the role of mast cells in the pathogenesis of emphysema. Cigarette smoke conditioned medium (CSM) induced the expression of mast cell tryptase (MMCP-6) in primary cultured mast cells. This tryptase expression was caused by the CSM-stimulated production of TGF-β in culture and neutralization of TGF-β suppressed the CSM-induced expression of tryptase in mast cells. An increase in mast cell tryptase expression was also found in an experimental model for emphysema. Exposure of mice to cigarette smoke increased the number of mast cells in the airways and the expression of mast cell tryptase. In accordance with the in vitro findings, TGF-β in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of smoke-exposed animals was significantly increased. Our study indicates that mast cells may be a source of TGF-β production after cigarette smoke exposure and that in turn TGF-β may change the tryptase expression in mast cells.

Abstract
Mast cells are important effector cells of allergy and are involved in the pathology of many other diseases. Measurement of β-hexosaminidase activity, the most commonly used method for evaluation of murine mast cell activity, requires a large number of cells and thus is of limited utility for studying mast cells in mouse models of disease. In this study we evaluated the sensitivity of histamine release as compared to β-hexosaminidase activity in the measurement of mast cell activation. Whereas a minimum of 6×10(4) mast cells per ml were required to detect slight increases in β-hexosaminidase activity after anti-IgE and ionomycin stimulation, substantial increases in histamine release could be detected under the same activating conditions with as few as 480 mast cells per ml. These findings demonstrate that measurement of histamine release is substantially more sensitive than assessment of β-hexosaminidase activity for detecting mast cell activation. Additionally, we describe a novel flow cytometric method for detecting murine mast cell activation. When using 7.5×10(5) peritoneal cells per condition and gating on IgE+c-kit+cells, mast cell expression of surface CD200R1 increased after both IgE and non IgE-mediated activation. This flow cytometric procedure was uncomplicated and rapid, with increases in surface CD200R1 expression appearing after as little as 30 min of stimulation time. Measuring histamine release and surface CD200R1 expression are sensitive approaches for detection of murine mast cell activation. Further, both approaches can be done on unpurified peritoneal cell populations. By requiring low numbers of cells, these approaches are ideal for investigating mast cell activation in murine models of disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mast cells are important effector cells in innate or acquired immunity that contribute to host defence. Excessive activation of mast cells can result in the development of allergic diseases, including atopic asthma. Mast cell activation by IgE and specific antigen induces the cells to release spasmogenic, vasoactive and pro-inflammatory mediators, which enhance airway smooth muscle contraction, vascular permeability and inflammatory cell recruitment. Recently, we have demonstrated that exposure of mast cells to cigarette smoke medium (CSM) triggered mast cells to produce chemokines. On the other hand, smoking may decrease the risk of allergic sensitization, which could be explained by a reduced IgE production or a diminished response of mast cells to activation of the IgE receptor. OBJECTIVE In this study, we investigated the effect of CSM on the allergic activation of mast cells through IgE and antigen. METHODS Primary cultured murine mast cells were exposed to CSM and activated with IgE and antigen or lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The release of granules, production of leukotrienes, chemokines and cytokines was determined in the supernatants by ELISA. The effect of CSM exposure on intracellular signalling, especially the nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (Erk)1/2 pathways, was analysed by Western blotting. RESULTS CSM suppressed IgE-mediated degranulation and cytokine release, but no effect was observed on leukotriene release. CSM induced phosphorylation of Erk1/2 in mast cells. In CSM-exposed mast cells, activating transcription factor (ATF)-1 was phosphorylated after stimulation with IgE/Ag. LPS-activated mast cells were not influenced by CSM. CONCLUSION Our study suggests that exposure to cigarette smoke may lead to a reduced allergic activation of mast cells without affecting their response to activation via e.g. bacterial-derived LPS.

Abstract
Cells form stress granules (SGs) in response to environmental stresses, which constitute cytoplasmic domains where mRNAs are stored and translation is halted. Although several components are found in SGs, it is poorly understood as to how SGs are formed and dissolved. We identified growth factor receptor-bound protein 7 (Grb7), an RNA-binding, translational regulator, as an integral component of SGs, which directly interacts with Hu antigen R (HuR) and is required for cells to form SGs. When stress is terminated, Grb7 is hyperphosphorylated by focal adhesion kinase (FAK), loses its ability to directly interact with HuR and is dissociated from SG components, thereby disrupting SGs in recovering cells. Consistently, dominant-negative hypophospho mutants of FAK and Grb7 significantly attenuate SG disassembly during recovery. FAK activation followed by its phosphorylating Grb7 constitutes a cell-autonomous signalling pathway that regulates the disassembly of SGs and translational stimulation during recovery. This is the first reported pathway actively regulating the dynamics of SGs.

Abstract
The Src homology phosphotyrosyl phosphatase, SHP2, is a positive effector of EGFR signaling. However, the molecular mechanism and biological functions of SHP2 regulation are still not completely known. To better understand the cellular processes in which SHP2 participates, we carried out mass spectrometry to find SHP2 binding proteins. FLAG-SHP2 complexes were isolated by affinity purification, and associated proteins were identified by in-gel trypsin digestion followed by LC/MS/MS mass spectrometry. Among the identified proteins, we focus in this report on the heat shock protein 70 (HSP70). Physical interactions of SHP2 with HSP70 were confirmed in vivo. Further experiments demonstrate that EGF does not activate binding of SHP2 with HSP70 rather the binding appears to be constitutive. However, the formation of an HSP70/SHP2 complex affected the binding of SHP2 with EGFR and (or) GAB1. These data suggest that binding of HSP70 with SHP2 regulates to some extent the EGF signaling pathway. In addition, immunostaining experiments indicated that SHP2 and HSP70 co-localized in the cell membrane region after EGF treatment. Our findings propose a possible involvement of HSP70 in the regulation of EGF signaling pathway by SHP2.
