Abstract
For many years, the high-affinity receptor for immunoglobulin E (IgE) FcεRI, which is expressed by mast cells and basophils, has been widely held to be the exemplar of cross-linking (that is, aggregation dependent) signaling receptors. We found, however, that FcεRI signaling could occur in the presence or absence of receptor cross-linking. Using both cell and cell-free systems, we showed that FcεRI signaling was stimulated by surface-associated monovalent ligands through the passive, size-dependent exclusion of the receptor-type tyrosine phosphatase CD45 from plasma membrane regions of FcεRI-ligand engagement. Similarly to the T cell receptor, FcεRI signaling could also be initiated in a ligand-independent manner. These data suggest that a simple mechanism of CD45 exclusion-based receptor triggering could function together with cross-linking-based FcεRI signaling, broadening mast cell and basophil reactivity by enabling these cells to respond to both multivalent and surface-presented monovalent antigens. These findings also strengthen the case that a size-dependent, phosphatase exclusion-based receptor triggering mechanism might serve generally to facilitate signaling by noncatalytic immune receptors.

Abstract
The concept of forbidden foods that should not be eaten goes back to the Garden of Eden and apart from its religious meanings it may also have foreshadowed the concept of foods that can provoke adverse reactions. Thus we could say that allergic diseases have plagued mankind since the beginning of life on earth. The prophet Job was affected by a condition that following the rare symptoms described by the Holy Bible might be identified as a severe form of atopic dermatitis (AD). The earliest record of an apparently allergic reaction is 2621 B.C., when death from stinging insects was first described by hieroglyphics carved into the walls of the tomb of Pharaoh Menes depicting his death following the sting of a wasp. In 79 A.D., the death of the Roman admiral Pliny the Elder was ascribed to the SO2-rich gases emanating from the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Hippocrates (460–377 B.C.) was probably the first to describe how cow’s milk (CM) could cause gastric upset and hives, proposing dietetic measures including both treatment and prevention for CM allergy.

Abstract
Mast cells play a critical role in IgE-dependent immediate hypersensitivity. Recent studies have shown that, contrary to the traditional view, binding of monomeric IgE to Fc epsilon RI results in a number of biological outcomes in mast cells, including survival. However, IgE molecules display heterogeneity in inducing cytokine production; highly cytokinergic (HC) IgEs cause extensive Fc epsilon RI aggregation, which leads to potent enhancement of survival and other activation events, whereas poorly cytokinergic (PC) IgEs can do so inefficiently. The present study demonstrates that HC, but not PC, IgEs can efficiently induce adhesion and spreading of mouse mast cells on fibronectin-coated plates in slow and sustained kinetics. HC IgE-induced adhesion through beta1 and beta7 integrins promotes survival, IL-6 production, and DNA synthesis. Importantly, we have identified Lyn and Syk as requisite tyrosine kinases and Hck, Btk, and protein kinase C theta as contributory kinases in HC IgE-induced adhesion and spreading, whereas protein kinase C epsilon plays a negative role. Consistent with these results, Lyn, Syk, and Btk are activated in HC IgE-stimulated cells in a slower but more sustained manner, compared with cells stimulated with IgE and Ag. Thus, binding of HC IgEs to Fc epsilon RI induces adhesion of mast cells to fibronectin by modulating cellular activation signals in a unique fashion.

Abstract
The tetraspanins are a superfamily of membrane glycoproteins which facilitate the interaction of membrane and intracellular signalling molecules (e.g., integrins, pro-growth factors and their receptors, protein kinase-C) in the formation of membrane signalling microdomains (sometimes referred to as the tetraspanin web). A proximal localisation/association of tetraspanins with Fc receptors (FcR) has been implied by the repeated rediscoveries of tetraspanins as the targets of antibodies which activate platelets and other blood cells through co-ligation of FcR. Direct evidence of tetraspanin-FcR interactions has come from immunoprecipitation and co-immunofluorescence studies. The functional effects of this interaction remain unclear, but tetraspanins have been identified as negative regulators of FcR signalling independently of co-ligation, indicating potential roles in modulating FcR function in co-ordination with the activity of other signalling/adhesion molecules in the tetraspanin web. Given their capacity to influence FcR signalling, tetraspanins could provide specific therapeutic targets for immune disorders including rheumatoid arthritis, asthma and allergies.

Abstract
We recently demonstrated that immunoglobulin E (IgE), in the absence of cross-linking agents, activates signaling pathways in healthy murine bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs) and that this activation enhances BMMC survival, at least in part, via secretion of autocrine-acting cytokines. We report herein that IgE alone also triggers the adhesion of both BMMCs and connective tissue mast cells (CTMCs) to the connective tissue component, fibronectin (FN). This adhesion occurs to the same extent as that triggered by optimal levels of Steel factor (SF) or IgE + antigen (IgE + Ag) and is mediated by an increased avidity of the integrin very late antigen 5 (VLA-5). Moreover, this IgE-induced adhesion, which is prolonged compared with that elicited by SF or IgE + Ag, requires phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), phospholipase C gamma (PLCgamma), and extracellular calcium but not extracellular-regulated kinase (Erk) or p38. Interestingly, we found, using the calcium channel blocker, 2-APB (2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate) and Lyn-/- BMMCs that both IgE- and IgE + Ag-induced adhesion to FN require extracellular calcium entry, whereas SF does not. Furthermore, our data suggest that FN acts synergistically with IgE to prolong intracellular phosphorylation events and to enhance IgE-induced inflammatory cytokine production and BMMC survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The T-cell receptor (TCR)/CD3 complex is the target of therapeutic strategies aimed at prolonging allograft survival. The immunotoxin FN18-CRM9, composed of the anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody FN18 and the mutated diphtheria toxin CRM9, is useful for prolonging allograft survival in preclinical models of transplantation. To explore the influence of conjugation of the mutated diphtheria toxin on functional activation of the TCR/CD3 complex, we compared the effects of FN18-CRM9 and unconjugated FN18 on protein tyrosine phosphorylation and ligand/receptor internalization in purified monkey peripheral blood T cells. METHODS Purified normal rhesus monkey T cells were incubated with unconjugated FN18 or conjugated FN18-CRM9 and examined for differences in antibody binding, tyrosine phosphorylation, and CD3 internalization. RESULTS Binding cross-inhibition studies demonstrated that both compounds were able to inhibit fluorescein isothiocyanate-FN18 binding to CD3 with similar efficacy and potency. However, FN18-CRM9 was more potent than FN18 in triggering the phosphorylation of several proteins on tyrosine residues and in inducing CD3 internalization. The tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein blocked FN18-CRM9-induced protein tyrosine phosphorylation and CD3 internalization, suggesting that tyrosine phosphorylation is involved in the internalization of the immunotoxin. Interestingly, in FN18-CRM9- but not FN18-treated cells, there was a gradual decrease in cellular CD3 protein levels within 24 and 48 hr; such a decrease was not observed with the control protein Csk. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that the conjugation of the mutated diphtheria toxin CRM9 to FN18 modulates the monoclonal antibody-mediated cross-linking of the TCR/CD3 complex, leading to a stronger protein tyrosine phosphorylation and CD3 internalization. This may in turn contribute to the greater efficacy of the immunotoxin in prolonging allograft survival.

Abstract
The cross-linking by immunoglobulin E of its high-affinity receptor, FcepsilonRI, on mast cells initiates a complex series of biochemical events leading to degranulation and the synthesis and secretion of eicosanoids and cytokines through the action of transcription factors, such as nuclear factor-kappaB. The initial activation involves the phosphorylation of FcepsilonRI beta- and gamma-subunits through the actions of the tyrosine kinases lyn and syk. For the purposes of description, the subsequent events may be grouped in three cascades characterized by the key proteins involved. First, the phospholipase C-inositol phosphate cascade activates protein kinase C and is largely responsible for calcium mobilization and influx. Second, activation of Ras and Raf via mitogen-activated protein kinase causes the production of arachidonic acid metabolites. Third, the generation of sphingosine and sphingosine-1-phosphate occurs through activation of sphingomyelinase. While the early signaling events tend to be specific for the cited cascades, there is an increasing overlap of activated proteins with the downstream propagation of the signal. It is the balanced interaction between these proteins that culminates in degranulation, synthesis, and release of eicosanoids and cytokines.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immunosuppressive drugs that target T cells are useful for prolonging allograft survival. The anti-CD3 immunotoxin FN18-CRM9 has been shown to effectively prolong renal allograft survival in a rhesus monkey model of transplantation. However, immunotoxin-treated monkeys showed increased levels of inflammatory cytokines and produced antibodies to donor proteins. To better understand the role of FN18-CRM9 in the production of cytokines and anti-donor antibodies in the monkey model, we examined whether this immunotoxin elicits functional responses in T cells. METHODS Purified normal rhesus monkey T cells (>98% purity) were incubated with immunotoxin FN18-CRM9 or the unconjugated anti-CD3 monoclonal antibodies and then examined for changes in protein tyrosine phosphorylation, adhesion to fibronectin, gene expression, and proliferation in the presence or absence of anti-CD28 monoclonal antibodies (mAb) and interleukin-2. RESULTS Immunotoxin treatment of T cells in vitro increased protein tyrosine phosphorylation, cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix, and expression of the inflammatory cytokines interferon-gamma and tumor necrosis factor-alpha. These immunotoxin effects were similar in magnitude to those induced by the unconjugated mAb. In contrast, immunotoxin-induced T cell proliferation was markedly less than that induced by the unconjugated mAb. Interestingly, the mitogenic molecules IL-2 and anti-CD28 mAb did not prevent immunotoxin-induced inhibition of cell proliferation. CONCLUSIONS The activation of T cells for protein phosphorylation, adhesion, and cytokine expression strongly suggests that the actions of FN18-CRM9 in vivo are not limited to the inhibition of protein synthesis.

Abstract
Interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) is an important regulatory cytokine in cell proliferation, differentiation, adhesion, mediator release, and gene induction. This diversity of effector roles is achieved by a variety of incompletely understood mechanisms. In the mast cell (MC), IFN-gamma downregulates mediator synthesis and secretion. The present study demonstrates and characterizes for the first time IFN-gamma inhibition of adhesion of the MC analogue RBL-2H3 to the extracellular matrix protein fibronectin (FN). Inhibition requires preincubation of the cells with IFN-gamma for 20 hr, and is statistically significant at 100 U/ml IFN-gamma. Flow cytometry indicates that cell surface expression of very late antigen-4 (VLA-4), VLA-5, and the vitronectin receptor (VNR) remain constant following IFN-gamma treatment, indicating the inhibitory effect of IFN-gamma on adhesion to FN is not achieved through a reduction in integrin receptors for FN. Fluorescent labelling with Texas red phalloidin demonstrated rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton in response to IFN-gamma was not significant. The tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor vanadate, and the nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor L-NAME, reduced the IFN-gamma effect on adhesion to FN by 62 and 70%, respectively, demonstrating that the IFN-gamma effect is dependent upon the production of NO, potentially though a tyrosine phosphatase dependent mechanism. The NO donors sodium nitroprusside and S-nitrosoglutathione mimicked the effect of IFN-gamma. Thus, following stimulation with IFN-gamma, NO plays an autocrine role in the MC, and is able to modulate integrin function. This adds to the pathways NO is able to inhibit in the mast cell, shows that endogenous NO is able to inhibit these pathways, and suggests NO is impinging upon an element common to many signalling mechanisms in the MC.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine kinases are critical for the function of CD28 in T cells. We examined whether the tyrosine kinases Pyk2 and Fak (members of the focal adhesion kinase family) are involved in CD28 signaling. We found that ligating CD28 in Jurkat T cells rapidly increases the tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 but not of Fak. Paxillin, a substrate for Pyk2 and Fak, was not tyrosine-phosphorylated after CD28 ligation. CD28-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 was markedly reduced in the absence of external Ca2+. Previous studies have shown that the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) induces tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2. In this report, the concurrent ligation of CD28 and TCR increased tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2; however, the extent of phosphorylation by both receptors was equivalent to the sum of that induced by each receptor alone. The Syk/Zap inhibitor piceatannol blocked CD28, and TCR induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2, suggesting that Syk/Zap is involved in Pyk2 phosphorylation. In contrast, the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor wortmannin blocked TCR- but not CD28-induced phosphorylation of Pyk2, suggesting that CD28 and TCR activate distinct pathways to induce tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2. Notably, depleting phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate-sensitive protein kinase C did not block CD28- and CD3-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2. These data provide evidence for the involvement of Pyk2 in the CD28 signaling cascade and suggest that neither Fak nor paxillin is involved in the signaling pathways of CD28.

Abstract
Antibodies against integrins have been shown to inhibit allergic airway responses. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that the beta1 integrin, very late antigen-4 (VLA-4), is involved in mast cell activation triggered by allergen exposure in sensitized animals. To do this we studied Brown Norway rats that were sensitized to ovalbumin (OA; 1 mg subcutaneously) using Bordetella pertussis as an adjuvant. Two weeks later rats were challenged with OA, pulmonary resistance (RL) was determined, and the concentrations of histamine and tryptase in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and N-acetyl-leukotriene (LT)E4 in bile were measured. Pretreatment with a monoclonal antibody against VLA-4 (TA-2) attenuated the early response after OA challenge (342.9 +/- 24.4% baseline RL versus 153.3 +/- 19.4%; p < 0.01). There were significantly lower concentrations of histamine (67.11 +/- 11.90 microgram/ml versus 26.69 +/- 1.84; p < 0.01) and tryptase (0.143 +/- 0. 035 microgram/ml versus 0.053 +/- 0.022 microgram/ml; p < 0.01) in TA-2-treated animals. The increases in the concentrations of biliary N-acetyl-LTE4 after OA challenge were also significantly lower in TA-2-treated animals. These data suggest that a selective anti-VLA-4 monoclonal antibody prevents early responses through inhibition of mast cell activation.

Abstract
Abstract
Although the requirement for c-Src in extracellular matrix (ECM)-mediated fibroblast motility has been well established, the roles of hemopoietic Src family protein tyrosine kinases in leukocyte migration have not been fully elucidated. To address the issue, we analyzed fibronectin (Fn)-mediated adhesion signaling in rat basophilic leukemia (RBL) 2H3 cells overexpressing 1) Csk, 2) a membrane-anchored, gain-of-function Csk (mCsk), and 3) a kinase-defective mCsk (mCsk(−)). Parent RBL2H3 cells, expressing autoactivated c-kit, readily adhered to Fn-coated surface, developed typical leukocyte adhesion machinery (podosome), and migrated toward Fn without cytokine priming, thus provided a simple experimental system to analyze Fn-mediated outside-in signaling. While overexpression of Csk or the Csk mutants did not significantly affect cell adhesion to the Fn surface or α5 integrin recruitment to the attachment sites, Csk suppressed and mCsk almost abolished Fn-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of paxillin, filamentous actin assembly to podosomes, and cell migration, but mCsk(−) did not. Coexpression of LynA devoid of C-terminal negative regulatory tyrosine in mCsk cells successfully restored Fn-mediated podosome formation and cell migration. Coexpression of c-Src lacking the C-terminal tyrosine reconstructed podosomes, but could not restore the cell migration regardless of its expression level. Collectively, these observations provide evidence that Src family protein tyrosine kinases are required, and that Lyn could transmit sufficient signal for Fn-mediated cytoskeletal changes leading to cell locomotion in RBL2H3 cells, and they suggest that Lyn and c-Src are differentially involved in cell motility.

Abstract
The antiallergic drug oxatomide and analogs inhibit mediator release from a rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cell line, which is frequently used as a mast cell model. By investigating a series of derivatives of oxatomide with different inhibiting activities on exocytosis, we aimed to evaluate the role of their effects on the early steps of the signal transduction cascade in the inhibition of exocytosis. The active compounds induced hyperphosphorylation of tyrosine residues both in stimulated as well as in resting cells. Furthermore, some elevation of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) formation upon antigen activation was observed for the active derivatives. Ca2+ fluxes were also studied. The inhibition of the antigen-induced 45Ca2+ influx correlated with the effects of the drugs on exocytosis. Furthermore, the inhibitory activity on antigen- and thapsigargin-mediated exocytosis correlated well. Adherence of the cells to fibronectin, stimulating cellular integrin receptors, was synergistic to antigen activation of the RBL cells. However, oxatomide did lack any effect on integrin-mediated processes, as the IC50 value for exocytosis was identical for fibronectin-adhered cells and standard cultured cells. We conclude that oxatomide and its analogs inhibit exocytosis, mainly by inhibiting Ca2+ influx over store-operated Ca2+ (SOC) channels. The drugs have a direct effect on the store-operated Ca2+ channels or affect the direct regulation of these channels.

Aggregation of the FcepsilonRI, a member of the immune receptor family, induces the activation of proteintyrosine kinases and results in tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins that are involved in downstream signaling pathways. Here we report that Pyk2, another member of the focal adhesion kinase family, was present in the RBL-2H3 mast cell line and was rapidly tyrosine-phosphorylated and activated after FcepsilonRI aggregation. Tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 was also induced by the calcium ionophore A23187, by phorbol myristate acetate, or by stimulation of G-protein-coupled receptors. Adherence of cells to fibronectin dramatically enhanced the induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2. Although Src family kinases are activated by FcepsilonRI stimulation and tyrosine-phosphorylate the receptor subunits, the activation and tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 were downstream of Syk. In contrast, tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 by stimulation of G-protein-coupled receptors was independent of Syk. Therefore, the FcepsilonRI-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 is downstream of Syk and may play a role in cell secretion.

Abstract
To study the role of the focal adhesion tyrosine kinase (FAK) in receptor-mediated secretion, we transfected FAK cDNA into a variant (3B6) of the RBL-2H3 mast cell line. This 3B6 cell line expressed low levels of FAK and was defective in high affinity IgE receptor (FcepsilonRI) but not Ca2+ ionophore-mediated secretion. FcepsilonRI-mediated secretion was reconstituted after transfection of wild-type FAK. Histamine release was also enhanced by the stable expression of two mutants of FAK: a kinase-inactive form in which the ATP binding site Lys-454 was replaced by Arg or a mutant in which the autophosphorylation site Tyr-397 was replaced by Phe. Therefore, the catalytic activity and the autophosphorylation site of FAK are not essential for secretion. FcepsilonRI aggregation increased the tyrosine phosphorylation of both mutants of FAK to the same extent as wild-type FAK. Therefore, tyrosine kinases activated by FcepsilonRI aggregation are phosphorylating FAK and some of these phosphorylation sites are other than Tyr-397. These results strongly suggest that FAK plays a role in FcepsilonRI-induced secretion by functioning as an adapter or linker molecule.

Abstract
Rat basophilic leukemia cells will adhere to and spread out on fibronectin coated surfaces in an integrin dependent manner. Adhesion and spreading on fibronectin leads to increased degranulation, inositol phosphate production, phospholipase D activation, and increased production of prostaglandin D2 and leukotriene C4 when the cells are activated through the high affinity IgE receptor. Rat basophilic leukemia cells will also adhere to surfaces coated with anti-rat class I antibodies, poly-L-lysine, and a lectin purified from Tetragonolobus purpureas. In all cases, antigen activated cells, which were adherent, displayed increased signaling, degranulation and eicosanoid production as compared to cells which were non-adherent. Cells which adhere to either anti-rat class I antibodies or poly-L-lysine also spread even though this is not mediated through integrins. In contrast, adhesion to the lectin from Tetragonolobus did not cause any appreciable spreading unless the cells were also triggered through the IgE receptor. Cells were also able to bind to fibronectin immobilized on polystyrene beads which mimics adhesion but does not allow spreading. However, these cells exhibited no increased signaling, degranulation, or eicosanoid production. Furthermore, rat basophilic leukemia cells can be modified by incubating them in the presence of biotinylated-phosphatidylserine which becomes incorporated into the membrane. These modified cells will adhere to streptavidin coated plates while unmodified cells will not. However, these modified cells do not spread, even after activation with antigen, and they show no increased degranulation or production of eicosanoids. These results indicate that adhesion itself is not sufficient for upregulation of the cells in response to antigen and that spreading of the cells may be the critical component.

Abstract
The non-sedating anti-allergic drug astemizole, apart from its potential to antagonise H1 receptors, inhibits the release of inflammation mediators from mast cells. To study the mechanism of this inhibition, we investigated the effects of astemizole and one of its active metabolites, norastemizole, on different phases of Fc epsilon RI (the high affinity receptor for the immunoglobulin IgE) receptor-activated signal transduction in rat basophilic leukemia cells (RBL-2H3), leading to exocytosis. Cells were stimulated either through antigen, or thapsigargin, or synergistic combinations of Fc epsilon RI receptor activation with either adenosine A3 receptors or integrins, activated by fibronectin adherence. The effects of the drugs on mediator release, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate formation, tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins and Ca2+ fluxes were investigated. Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate levels are not affected. Astemizole increased tyrosine phosphorylation in resting cells, especially a 96-kDa protein band. Particularly tyrosine phosphorylation related to post Ca2+ processes is changed after cell triggering in the presence of astemizole. Both drugs inhibit the influx of 45Ca2+, with similar dose response curves as for the inhibition of exocytosis. Astemizole but not norastemizole, when used in resting cells, released Ca2+ from intracellular stores. Astemizole (> 15 microM) also induced exocytosis in resting cells. It did not induce additional changes in its inhibiting effect when cells were triggered with synergistic combinations of Fc epsilon RI receptor activation with either adenosine A3 receptors or integrins. Effects on haemolysis of erythrocytes and differential scanning calorimetry in liposomes showed clear differences in membrane perturbation between astemizole and norastemizole. The observed differences, and the role of membrane perturbation in the action on Ca2+ fluxes, are discussed.

Abstract
The antigen induced stimulation of mast cells by aggregation of Fc epsilon RI receptors activates a signal transduction cascade leading to release of mediators of inflammation like histamine, arachidonic acid metabolites and cytokines. In this study we investigated a series of structurally related anti-allergic drugs, containing a common lipophilic diphenylmethyl piperazinyl tail and head groups that differ in lipophilicity. Effects of these drugs on various steps of the signal transduction cascade was investigated to gain insight into the mechanism of action of these drugs. It appeared that addition of the drugs to resting cells induced changes in the tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins. The most active anti-allergics in inhibiting exocytosis, AL3264 and oxatomide, also induced the largest changes in phosphorylation. The effects of the drugs on tyrosine phosphorylation after cell activation was complex. Additionally, Ca2+ fluxes were investigated. Ca2+ efflux from the cells was negligibly influenced by the active drugs. However, the drugs inhibited influx from extracellular Ca2+, which was correlated with the effects of the drugs on inhibition of exocytosis and on membrane stabilization induced by the drugs, measured as haemolysis of erythrocytes. It is concluded that inhibition of Ca2+ influx is the major mechanism with which these drugs inhibit exocytosis and that for this effect drug-membrane interactions, possibly affecting the function of membrane embedded proteins, are of importance. Possible mechanisms including drug-membrane interactions, phosphorylation and inhibition of Ca2+ influx are discussed.

Abstract
In atopic dermatitis (AD) patients, IgE molecules are demonstrated on the surface of Langerhans cells (LC). Fc epsilon RI molecules, which are present on the surface of LC in AD patients as well as normal individuals, are responsible for this binding. In this study, we have investigated phenotypic and functional characteristics of Fc epsilon RI on epidermal and dermal cell populations. Epidermal and dermal cell suspensions were prepared enzymatically with dispase followed by either trypsin or collagenase treatment, respectively. Peripheral blood basophils were negatively selected by excluding other leukocytes with surface marker staining. Consistent with previous reports, both peripheral blood basophils and epidermal LC were positively stained with anti Fc epsilon RI monoclonal antibody. In addition, an Fc epsilon RI positive population was demonstrated among dermal HLA-DR positive cells. These cells express significant amounts of HLA-DR molecules (DRHi) and co-express CD 1 a molecules, which identifies them as LC-like dendritic APC of the dermis. No other Fc epsilon RI positive population was found in the other dermal DRMid or DR- populations, except for a minor DRLo population, presumably mast cells. To analyze whether these Fc epsilon RI molecules are signal transducing for LC, intracellular calcium mobilization after crosslinking of Fc epsilon RI was measured with flow cytometry. Following crosslinking, peripheral blood basophils clearly increased intracellular calcium. On the other hand, neither normal epidermal LC nor dermal DRHiCD1a + cells changed their intracellular calcium level after Fc epsilon RI crosslinking. These data indicate that normal epidermal and dermal LC, but not basophils, are resistant to calcium flux following Fc epsilon RI engagement.

Abstract
Platelets express a single low affinity receptor for immunoglobulin, FcgammaRII, that triggers multiple cellular responses upon interaction with multivalent immune complexes. In this study we show that immobilized IgG is also a potent stimulant of platelet activation triggering adhesion, aggregation, massive dense granule secretion, and thromboxane production. Platelet adhesion to IgG was blocked by the FcgammaRII receptor-specific monoclonal antibody, IV. 3. Pretreatment of the platelets with cytochalasin D to inhibit actin polymerization similarly prevented cell binding to IgG having no effect on platelet binding to fibrinogen. Platelet adhesion to IgG also led to the induction of tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple proteins including pp125(FAK) and p72(SYK). These proteins were also tyrosine-phosphorylated in alphaIIbbeta3-deficient IgG-adherent platelets from patients with Glanzmann's thrombasthenia. These data demonstrate that FcgammaRII mediates pp125(FAK) phosphorylation and platelet adhesion to IgG independent of the integrin alphaIIbbeta3. Treatment of the platelets with bisindolylmaleimide to inhibit protein kinase C prevented phosphorylation of pp125(FAK) as well as several other proteins, but not p72(SYK) phosphorylation. This study establishes that the FcgammaRII receptor mediates pp125(FAK) phosphorylation via protein kinase C.

Abstract
Integrins are a family of cell surface receptors which mediate the adhesion of cells to each other or to extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. The interaction of integrins with their ligands or counter-receptors was initially considered to be a one-way process in that cells actively regulate the interaction of integrins with their ligands ('inside-out signal'). In contrast, it was not obvious that cells would receive a signal from the outside via the integrin heterodimers following ligand binding ('outside-in signal'). Recent evidence increasingly supports the active role of integrins in cell activation and proliferation. Many reports describe the effects of integrin-mediated signaling in lymphoid cells. Our studies of gamma/delta T cells, expressing the beta 3 integrin vitronectin receptor (VNR), reflect some of the consequences this active interaction between lymphocytes and the ECM could have for T cell activation and differentiation. The VNR has been described as a T cell costimulatory molecule. We recently reported that the VNR has the potential to stimulate cytokine secretion in T cell hybridomas without involvement of T cell receptor-mediated signals. Further studies demonstrated tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins following VNR cross-linking and the interaction of the VNR with protein kinases. Intensive research focuses on the signal transduction mechanisms of integrins and their interaction with other costimulatory or activation molecules. This knowledge is important to better understand the role of adhesion molecules, the ECM, and the cellular microenvironment for lymphocyte activation and differentiation.

Abstract
AG-18, an inhibitor of protein-tyrosine kinases, was employed to study the role of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in insulin- and phorbol ester-induced signaling cascades. When incubated with Chinese hamster ovary cells overexpressing the insulin receptor, AG-18 reversibly inhibited insulin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor substate-1, with minimal effects either on receptor autophosphorylation or on phosphorylation of Shc64. Under these conditions, AG-18 inhibited insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of the ribosomal protein S6, while no inhibition of insulin-induced activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase or MAPK was detected. In contrast, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced activation of MAPK kinase and MAPK and phosphorylation of S6 were inhibited by AG-18. This correlated with inhibition of TPA-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins, the most prominent ones being pp114 and pp120. We conclude that Tyr-phosphorylated insulin receptor substrate-1 is the main upstream regulator of insulin-induced S6 phosphorylation by p70s6k, whereas MAPK signaling seems to be activated in these cells primarily through the adaptor molecule Shc. In contrast, TPA-induced S6 phosphorylation is mediated by the MAPK/p90rsk cascade. A key element of this TPA-stimulated signaling pathway is an AG-18-sensitive protein-tyrosine kinase.

Abstract
Sunburned skin is characterized by expanded numbers of macrophages (ultraviolet [UV]-MPH), and these UV-MPH differ from Langerhans cells (LC) in their abilities to initiate T-cell-mediated immune reactions. UV-MPH and LC may themselves be differentially responsive to the surrounding milieu, which may in turn modulate their immunoregulatory activity. We asked whether immunologic signal responsiveness, as assessed by cytosolic calcium mobilization, differed among normal human LC, UV-MPH, and normal blood monocytes. LC from normal skin and UV-MPH from UV-exposed skin were distinguished from keratinocytes in epidermal cell suspensions by labeling with anti-HLA-DR. Intracellular calcium content was monitored in real time with the calcium indicator, indo-1, after cross-linking Fc gamma RI, Fc gamma RII, CD11b, CD11c, or CD18 molecules, or addition of interleukin-1 alpha, IL-1 beta, interferon-gamma, bradykinin, substance P, or FMLP. Using flow cytometric analysis of cell suspensions, UV-MPH and blood monocytes were triggered by cross-linking Fc gamma RII (flux of 6.05 and 12.2, respectively). UV-MPH could also be triggered by Fc gamma RI crosslinking and FMLP (flux of 6.41 and 15.54, respectively). By contrast, none of these inflammatory stimuli could cause cytosolic calcium mobilization in normal LC (Flux of -0.2 by FcRII, and 0.18 by FMLP). Because LC calcium flux may be dependent upon extracellular attachments, LC were anchored onto fibronectin-coated coverslips and then their Fc gamma RII was crosslinked in a continuous flow chamber. However, image analysis also failed to detect calcium flux. Neither population responded to interleukin-1, interferon-gamma, bradykinin, substance P, or beta 2 integrin crosslinking. These results indicate that blood monocytes and infiltrating macrophages differ substantially from LC in their responses to immune complexes and chemoattractants. Differential responsiveness to the inflammatory milieu may influence the antigen presenting or effector capabilities of these populations.

Abstract
Tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins is a mechanism of signalling for different receptors and is important for cell growth and differentiation. Mast cells and basophils are secretory cells that play a role in inflammatory and immediate allergic reactions. The activation/aggregation of different surface receptors on these cells induces tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins. Because these signals are essential for the function of basophils and mast cells, characterizing these pathways could provide methods to specifically regulate the function of these cells. Here we discuss the signals generated by three receptors: the high affinity IgE receptor (Fc epsilon RI) the growth factor receptor, Kit, and integrins.

Abstract
The focal adhesion kinase, pp125FAK, is a novel non-receptor protein tyrosine kinase expressed in different cells including mast cells. Here we report that a 77-kDa protein associates with pp125FAK in the mast cell analog, rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cells. When pp125FAK immunoprecipitates were subjected to an in vitro kinase assay, there was prominent phosphorylation on tyrosine of pp125FAK and of a 77-kDa protein. By V8 protease digestion mapping and by immunoblotting with two different anti-pp125FAK antibodies, the 77-kDa protein was distinct from pp125FAK. This Fak Associated Protein or FAP was detected in RBL-2H3 cells but not in fibroblasts. The aggregation of the high affinity IgE receptor, Fc epsilon RI, induced the in vivo tyrosine phosphorylation of FAP. However, there was a marked decrease in the in vitro phosphorylation of FAP in the immunoprecipitates from Fc epsilon RI aggregated cells. Both of these Fc epsilon RI-mediated effects were enhanced by cell adhesion. There was strong association of FAP with non-tyrosine-phosphorylated pp125FAK. Thus this interaction does not appear to be mediated by the Src homology 2 domain. Together the data indicate that FAP associates with pp125FAK and suggest that FAP may play a role in Fc epsilon RI signaling.

Abstract
Fibronectin (FN) has been shown to act as a costimulator in both CD4+ and CD8+ T cell activation through the T cell receptor (TcR). Consistent with previous studies, we found that FN is able to both enhance the maximal amount of TcR-triggered degranulation and lower the threshold for activation. The density of immobilized anti-CD3 or anti-TcR required to induce degranulation and tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins by several cytotoxic T lymphocyte clones is quantitatively about tenfold lower in the presence of FN. We further demonstrate that FN alone stimulates transient tyrosine phosphorylation of a 120-kDa protein (pp120) in CD8+ T cells and when FN is coimmobilized with substimulatory amounts of anti-CD3 or anti-TcR there is a synergistic response, resulting in prolonged and enhanced phosphorylation of pp120. To determine if FN acts as a costimulator in CD8+ cells solely through mediating adhesion events or if it also transduces signals in T cells we conducted remote stimulation experiments. Degranulation was induced when FN and sub-stimulatory anti-CD3 were presented on separate surfaces, indicating that FN induces independent transmembrane signals capable of augmenting TcR-induced signals resulting in a functional response. Both FN plus TcR-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of pp120 and degranulation are inhibited by RGD-containing peptides, implying that an RGD-dependent FN receptor is mediating phosphorylation of pp120 and enhancing TcR-mediated degranulation.

Abstract
Adherence of cells to the extracellular matrix via focal adhesions is known to modulate many cellular functions. However, the role of focal adhesions in the regulation of secretion is unclear. To examine this we have used the RBL-2H3 rat mast cell line, in which we and others have observed cytoskeletal rearrangements and increased cell spreading during secretion. All activators of secretion examined, whether acting specifically through or bypassing the IgE-receptor, induced the assembly of focal adhesions, as defined by the localization of vinculin and talin. The extent of focal adhesion formation correlated with the extent of secretion and the time course of secretion also correlated with that of the assembly of focal adhesions. To examine the mechanism by which focal adhesion formation occurred, the protein kinase C inhibitor bisindolylmaleimide was used. Bisindolylmaleimide caused complete inhibition of both secretion and focal adhesion formation induced by antigen or the calcium ionophore A23187. Although PMA did not induce secretion, it induced focal adhesion assembly which was inhibited by bisindolylmaleimide. The inhibitor had no effect on secretion or focal adhesion formation induced by the ATP analogue, ATP gamma S in permeabilized cells, indicating ATP gamma S acts after the activation of protein kinase C in the secretory pathway. These data provide novel evidence that the formation of focal adhesions may have a role in the process of secretion from mast cells.

Abstract
Rat mast cells express high-affinity receptors for IgE (Fc epsilon RI) and low-affinity receptors for IgG (Fc gamma R). In this study, the capacity of IgG to activate the rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) and rat peritoneal mast cells was investigated. Immune complexes formed with purified rat IgG and antigen as well as chemically cross-linked rat IgG induced histamine release from RBL-2H3 cells. This stimulation was inhibited by pre-incubation of the cells with saturating concentrations of monomeric IgE. With chemically cross-linked rat IgG of each subclass, only IgG2a stimulated histamine release from RBL-2H3 cells and this release was also inhibited by prior saturation of the Fc epsilon RI with monomeric IgE. Identical results were obtained with rat peritoneal mast cells. In binding experiments, IgE and cross-linked rat IgG2a bound to rat Fc epsilon RI transfected into CHO cells. Monomeric rat IgG2a, cross-linked rat IgG1, IgG2b, IgG2c and rabbit IgG did not bind to Fc epsilon RI. Stimulation of RBL-2H3 cells with aggregated IgG2a induced phosphorylation of tyrosines in the beta and gamma subunits of the Fc epsilon RI. Thus, although RBL-2H3 and rat peritoneal mast cells have Fc gamma R, the IgG-mediated stimulation of these cells for histamine release was by the Fc epsilon RI. Altogether, these data demonstrate that the rat Fc epsilon RI is a functional receptor with low affinity for rat IgG2a.

Abstract
Mast cells express fibronectin-receptor integrins on the cell surface, which are involved in cellular activation. In this study rat and mouse mast cells adhered to fibronectin through very late antigen 4, 5 (beta 1 integrin) and vitronectin receptor (beta 3 integrin), and engagement of these receptors promoted cellular degranulation induced by cross-linking of the high-affinity IgE receptor. Blocking of these adhesion molecules by monoclonal antibodies remarkably reduced passive cutaneous anaphylaxis reaction in vivo. On fibronectin, cytokine release from mast cells on IgE receptor aggregation was also enhanced, but not the expression of cytokine genes, with the exception of interleukin-3. Interleukin-3 gene expression was constitutively observed in mouse-cultured mast cells and significantly increased on fibronectin with a prolonged survival of the cells, suggesting that the autocrine or paracrine system of interleukin-3 secretion contributes to the prolonged survival of mast cells on fibronectin. Our findings presented here clearly indicate that the engagement of fibronectin-receptor integrins on mast cells increases the sensitivity of the cells for cellular activation. Taking into consideration the fact that mast cells in the microenvironment are actually surrounded by other cells and extracellular matrix proteins, we identified significant roles of adhesion molecules on mast cells in the allergic state, and we hope to develop new strategies to manipulate these molecules for medical intervention in allergy.

Abstract
Aggregation of the high affinity IgE receptors on rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cells results in protein tyrosine phosphorylation although the receptor has no intrinsic enzymatic activity. The Src related protein tyrosine kinase p53/56lyn present in RBL-2H3 cells could play a role in this reaction. Here we have isolated the cDNA for rat Lyn and found it to be very homologous at the amino acid level to both the human and mouse proteins. A bacterially expressed maltose binding protein-Lyn (MBP-Lyn) fusion protein was already tyrosine phosphorylated and had tyrosine kinase activity. In a filter-binding assay, MBP-Lyn fusion protein (at 0.1 microM) specifically bound to several proteins of RBL-2H3 cells. In lysates of IgE receptor-activated cells, there was increased binding of MBP-Lyn to 65, 72, 78 and 110 kDa tyrosine phosphorylated proteins. The 72, 78 and 110 kDa tyrosine phosphorylated proteins were precipitated by a fusion protein containing the Lyn Src Homology 2 (SH2) domain. The 72 kDa Lyn binding protein was different from p72syk. Furthermore, paxillin, a cytoskeletal protein, was identified as one of the Lyn binding proteins. Thus Fc epsilon RI mediated signal transduction in RBL-2H3 cells may result from the interaction of p53/56lyn with paxillin, pp72, pp110 and other proteins.

Abstract
Basophils and mast cells play a role both in immediate allergic reactions and in inflammation. Both types of cells have surface adhesion receptors that can mediate binding to other cells and to extracellular matrix glycoproteins. Here Majed Hamawy and colleagues discuss the importance of these adhesion molecules in regulating basophil and mast-cell functions.

Abstract
Rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cells undergo morphological and cytoskeletal changes during antigen-induced secretion of allergic mediators. The exact role these changes play in the process of secretion is unclear. Using confocal microscopy we now show that PMA+A23187 causes extensive F-actin rearrangements during secretion of [3H] 5-HT. We also describe for the first time the association of myosin with F-actin during this secretory process. In unstimulated cells, myosin and F-actin are concentrated at the plasma membrane with no evidence of stress fibres. Upon addition of PMA or A23187, both F-actin and myosin are rearranged into membrane ruffles and discrete aggregations (foci), followed by the formation of parallel stress fibres located on the ventral membrane. This is in contrast to reports in other cell types in which PMA has been described as causing the disruption of F-actin stress fibres. The time course of secretion coincides with the formation of the foci and ruffles whilst the stress fibres form after the majority of secretion has occurred. These changes are accompanied by a 40% decrease in cell height and a two-fold increase in cell spreading and they occur in the absence of extracellular calcium but are inhibited by the protein kinase C inhibitor, Bisindolylmaleimide, which also inhibits secretion. The formation of myosin-decorated stress fibres, foci, and ruffles is not sufficient to cause secretion, as PMA alone induces these changes without any secretion. The relevance of actin and myosin rearrangements for the regulation of secretion is discussed.
