Abstract
Human leukocytes, isolated from the blood of ragweed-sensitive donors, release histamine upon reaction with a purified protein antigen derived from this pollen. The release process has been studied with washed cells suspended in a defined, serum-free medium. Physiologic levels of pH, ionic strength, and temperature, as well as both calcium and magnesium, are required for optimal cellular reactivity. The level of cellular sensitivity of approximately 200 ragweed-sensitive donors has been ascertained, and the kinetics of the release process studied. The rate of histamine release is a function of antigen concentration, but even with a large excess of this reagent it is impossible to abolish a lag phase. Chelation of the divalent cations or a decrease in the reaction temperature may be utilized to stop the reaction. These measures are effective both before and after the initiation of histamine release. Diminished cellular reactivity (desensitization) has been achieved by several procedures. These have in common the addition of antigen to cells in an environment deficient in but a single respect, followed by a restoration of optimal conditions. The significance of these data has been discussed and it has been proposed that immunologically induced histamine release is an active, enzymatically mediated process which occurs as a multistep response of viable cells to a specific antigenic stimulus.

Abstract
The effects of copper (CuSO4 and CuCl2) on in vitro histamine release from human basophils stimulated by anti-IgE and Ca2+ ionophore A23187 were evaluated. Both CuSO4 and CuCl2 caused a dose-related inhibition of histamine release, which was more pronounced on anti-IgE- than on Ca2+ ionophore-induced histamine release. The concentration which produced 50% inhibition of anti-IgE-induced histamine release was 1.3 microM for CuSO4 and 1.5 microM for CuCl2; the maximal inhibition of Ca2+ ionophore-induced histamine release was 33% for CuCl2 (4 microM) and 51% for CuSO4 (16 microM). The inhibitory effect on anti-IgE-induced histamine release persisted also when extracellular Cu2+ was removed by cell washing before stimulation, whereas no inhibition of Ca2+ ionophore-induced histamine release was found when extracellular Cu2+ was removed. The activity of Cu2+ was independent of any effects of deuterium oxide and colchicine, two agents known to interact with microtubules. Increased extracellular Ca2+ concentrations reduced the inhibitory effect of CuCl2 on Ca2+ ionophore-induced histamine release, and Schild plot analysis demonstrated that Cu2+ ions are competitive antagonists of Ca2+ ions. These results indicate that Cu2+ ions in the micromolar range down-regulate anti-IgE- and Ca2+ ionophore-induced histamine release. Since Cu2+ concentration in human plasma is in the micromolar range (30 microM with 10-30% of free Cu2+), it is conceivable that Cu2+ ions contribute to the in vivo regulation of histamine release from human basophils.

Abstract
Motor nerves are known to govern the structure of skeletal muscle. In the normal guinea pig diaphragmatic muscle, we found that mast cells were predominantly located in the central tendon. Following denervation, these cells became more numerous in the muscle itself than in the tendon. Therefore, nervous trophic influences are exerted on other tissue elements besides those which sustain transmission and contraction. Ascertaining mast-cell distribution in biopsies may help to elucidate denervation effects in motor neuron disease.

Abstract
Astroglial cells release taurine when stimulated by beta-adrenergic agonists and other neuroactive agents. The Ca2+-dependency of taurine release by an LRM55 astroglial cell line was investigated by removing Ca2+ from the perfusion medium and by using three inorganic and three organic Ca2+-channel blockers (Mn2+, Co2+, Cd2+, verapamil, nifedipine, and diltiazem). Spontaneous release and release stimulated by the beta-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol were not inhibited when cells were perfused with medium containing no added Ca2+ and 10 microM EGTA. Isoproterenol-stimulated taurine release was not blocked when extracellular Ca2+ was completely replaced by Mn2+, Co2+, or Cd2+, nor was it blocked by verapamil, nifedipine, or diltiazem. In fact isoproterenol-stimulated taurine release was increased by 50 microM diltiazem and when Ca2+ was replaced by Co2+. The rate of spontaneous release increased slowly and continually when Co2+ was substituted for Ca2+ but was almost unaffected by substitution of Mn2+ or Cd2+. Application of diltiazem increased spontaneous release significantly, while verapamil and nifedipine appeared to cause small increases. These results indicate that entry of Ca2+ from the extracellular medium is not required for either receptor-mediated or spontaneous taurine release from astroglial cells. Some other changes in the medium did strongly affect release. Both spontaneous and isoproterenol-stimulated release were inhibited by elevated osmotic pressure, and spontaneous release was greatly increased when Ca2+ was completely removed without substituting another divalent cation. Spontaneous release increased when antagonistic metal ions were replaced with Ca2+ and when organic channel blockers were removed.

Abstract
1. The contractions elicited in pieces of small intestine of actively immunized young chickens upon exposure to the specific antigen (Ag), or Schultz-Dale reaction, have been compared to similar responses of sensitized guinea-pig intestine. 2. Guinea-pig intestine responds, typically, with a large contraction to the first application of Ag. This is followed by a spontaneous relaxation of the preparation, while still in the presence of the Ag, and a rapid desensitization; i.e. further exposures to Ag fail to evoke new contractions. 3. In marked contrast, chicken intestine responds to the Ag with a contraction that remains at its maximal initial value for ca 5 min and then declines only slowly. 4. Exposure to the Ag does not desensitize chicken intestine, which relaxes upon washing out the antigenic protein but contracts again when this is re-introduced in the bath. 5. In addition, consecutive Schultz-Dale reactions of chicken intestine showed a consistent potentiation. They reached a maximal amplitude when the tissue was exposed to the Ag 5-7 times. Such a potentiation is abolished by storing the preparations for 24 hr at 4 degrees C. 6. These observations are discussed in terms of the known properties of avian antibodies.

Abstract
1. The relation between the energy metabolism and the secretory activity of rat peritoneal mast cells has been studied by determination of the cellular content of ATP and the rate of lactate production reflecting the rate of ATP synthesis under various experimental conditions. Secretion of histamine was induced by the antigen-antibody reaction, the polymeric amine compound 48/80, and the divalent ionophore A23187. 2. In presence of low concentrations of metabolic inhibitors (oligomycin or antimycin A) a linear relation between the secretion of histamine induced by all three liberators and the cellular ATP content at the time of cell activation was demonstrated. This may indicate a direct link between ATP and the secretory mechanism. 3. The possibility of an increased utilization of ATP during histamine secretion was explored in mast cells exposed to metabolic inhibitors. Incubation of mast cells with 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG) decreased the ATP content of the cells, and a long-lasting and stable level of mast cell ATP was observed. This is explained by a small decrease in the rate of ATP-synthesis by 2-DG. In 2-DG-treated cells secretion of histamine in response to compound 48/80 or the antigen-antibody reaction could still occur, and the secretion is shown to be associated with a decrease of the cellular ATP level. This ATP decrease indicates that secretion occurs by an ATP-requiring mechanism, that causes an increased cellular utilization of ATP in association with the secretory response. 4. The possibility has been considered that increased cytosol concentration of calcium in association with secretion may decrease the rate of ATP-synthesis due to accumulation of calcium by the mitochondria. This possibility can be excluded by the observation that in presence of respiratory inhibitors an identical ATP decrease was found during the secretion as in the case of the glycolytic inhibitor alone. This indicates that increased utilization of ATP by the cells was related directly to the secretory response. This observation was made with all three secretagogues. 5. A quantitative evaluation of the increased amount of ATP utilized by the cells in relation to the secretory response was performed by use of metabolic inhibitors. The ATP requirement of compound 48/80-induced secretion was 0.15 pmol/10(3) cells. This was observed when the ATP-synthesis was decreased to a negligible value.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Pulmonary mast cells were obtained from guinea pig lung using a combination of enzymatic digestion of tissue, centrifugal elutriation, and density gradient centrifugation on Percoll. In the initial procedure, lung tissue was enzymatically digested with collagenase and elastase in four 30 min incubations. Typically, monodispersed cell suspensions contained 4% mast cells. Further purification of these lung mast cells using elutriation and Percoll gradients consistently yielded mast cells of 40-78% (mean 51%) purity. These cells were morphologically intact, viable and found to be functional as determined by histamine release evoked by antigen and anti-guinea pig IgG1 antibody.

Abstract
When adult male guinea pigs were injected unilaterally intratesticularly with compound 48/80 (1 mg in 0.05 ml saline), their testicular peritubular capillaries were engorged with blood, intratubular edema was present on the ipsilateral side, and the blood-testicular (BT) barrier (measured by the entrance of acriflavin into the seminiferous tubule) was ablated. The contralateral testis, when injected with saline, showed no pathological changes nor a breakdown of the BT barrier. Subcutaneous injection of guinea pigs with cadmium chloride resulted in a more intense intratubular fluorescence than was observed for 48/80-treated animals. The H1 and H2 receptor blockers (diphenhydramine and cimetidine, respectively) reduced the intensity of capillary engorgement and edema. Intraperitoneal injections of 48/80 (0.5 mg) was lethal to rats, and both diphenhydramine and cimetidine induced survival even with as much as 1 mg of 48/80. Intratubular fluorescence was less severe than that observed for similarly treated guinea pigs or from cadmium chloride-treated rat testes. Neither treatment (48/80 or cadmium chloride) altered the blood-epididymal barrier of either guinea pigs or rats. Species differences were observed in the lethal effects of exogenously administered histamine.

Cytochemical methods for the localization of glycoconjugates including concanavalin A-horseradish peroxidase (ConA-HRP) and dialysed iron were used to study the distribution of glycoconjugates in mast cell granules during degranulation. The ConA-HRP method revealed intense staining of discharged mast cell granules. Dialysed iron staining was seen at the granule periphery, with extruded granules exhibiting more intense staining than undischarged granules.

Abstract
This study investigated the response of isolated tracheal preparation (ITP) from guinea pigs to three bronchoconstrictive drugs: histamine (H), carbachol (CAR), and acetylcholine (ACH). Cumulative dose-response curves were obtained in substrate-rich (5.50 mM of glucose) and substrate-free physiological salt solutions under aerobic conditions (PO2 = 95 +/- 0.5 Torr) or in acute 30-min hypoxia (PO2 = 30 +/- 2 Torr). The reactivity of ITP was measured by ED50 (effective dose developing 50% of maximal response); and the contractility of ITP was measured by a maximal developed isometric tension. This study showed that the contractile response of isolated segments of tracheas to H, CAR, and ACH was significantly decreased (P less than 0.05) when the experimental medium contained no glucose, or when glucose was replaced with metabolic inhibitor 2-deoxyglucose. This data contrasted with findings obtained with main pulmonary arteries (MPAs) isolated from the same species, where the absence of glucose in the experimental medium did not affect patterns of histamine cumulative dose-response curves. It was also shown that pretreatment of isolated tracheas with a small dose of insulin significantly decreased (P less than 0.05) the contractile response of airway smooth muscle to histamine. In both experiments, either with or without glucose in the experimental medium, acute hypoxia (30 min) had a significantly greater effect (P less than 0.05) on the development of isometric tension of MPA compared with that on ITP. Both removal of glucose from the experimental medium and/or acute hypoxia significantly decreased (P less than 0.001) adenosin triphosphate and creatine phosphate contents of tracheal segments but did not influence the high-energy phosphate content of main pulmonary arteries exposed to similar conditions. In addition to pointing out the physiological and metabolic differences between pulmonary vascular and airway smooth muscle, this study showed the important dependence of airway smooth muscle on glucose as a substrate.

Abstract
Experiments have been reported on the possible modulation of the spontaneous histamine release by adrenergic and cholinergic drugs. Adrenergic drugs increase the spontaneous histamine release in vivo, and in neoplastic mast cells, in vitro. The mechanism of histamine release appears to be dependent upon the activation of alpha-adrenoceptors. Cholinergic drugs activate the release of histamine in many secretory processes in vivo; in vitro, acetylcholine is one of the most powerful histamine releasers in isolated purified rat mast cells. The release of histamine evoked by acetylcholine in rat mast cells is a calcium-requiring, temperature-dependent exocytosis. The physiological relationship of the sympathetic, parasympathetic and histamine-containing cells are discussed.

Abstract
Vascular (pulmonary and hepatic blood vessels) and nonvascular (gastro-intestinal, reproductive and respiratory systems) smooth muscle preparations obtained from specifically sensitized animals of numerous species including man contract to specific antigen in vitro (Schultz-Dale phenomenon). This immunopharmacological technique is a useful tool to demonstrate immediate-type hypersensitivity in actively or passively sensitized tissues and may be used to investigate the nature of the principal pharmacological mediators involved in a particular tissue as well as to screen anti-anaphylactic (anti-allergic) drugs. However, much remains to be investigated on the complex mechanisms of action of antigen, desensitization and resensitization (recovery) of anaphylactic responsiveness.

Abstract
1 A lipopolysaccharide extract of Escherichia coli 026:B6 cells (026:B6(B) endotoxin) was shown to be toxic to normal adult guinea-pigs. 2 The agent had no action on isolated preparations of ileum and heart taken from normal adult guinea-pigs. 3 Ileal segments from animals actively immunized against 026:B6(B) endotoxin showed dose-dependent contractions when exposed to endotoxin. Desensitization phenomena were demonstrated. 4 Reactivity of 026:B6(B) endotoxin was transferred to isolated preparations of ileum and heart from normal animals by passive transfer of immune serum. 5 Tissue responses to 026:B6(B) were associated with release of ileal spasmogen into the bath medium. Mepyramine blocked the effects of this spasmogen at bath concentrations which caused little change in ileal responses to carbachol. 6 It is concluded that E. coli endotoxin can elicit anaphylactic reactions, and that this process may potentiate endotoxin toxicity in sensitized animals. However, endotoxin toxicity in guinea-pigs does not appear to depend on this kind of allergic process.

Abstract
The i.p. administration of L-histidine in doses of 500 and 1000 mg/kg, caused prolonged high levels of histidine but did not influence the levels of histamine in the non-mast cell tissues such as the stomach, lungs and liver in the rat. After polymyxin B or 48/80 treatments as well as in anaphylaxis, the levels of histamine in the lungs and liver were greatly reduced but histidine administration failed to alter noticeably the concentrations of histamine in these organs. Similarly, the low contents of histamine in the stomach of 48/50-treated or polymyxin B-treated rats remained unchanged in the presence of excess histidine. Histidine loadings however produced a marked increase in histidine decarboxylase activity of the glandular stomach and a simultaneous elevation in the serum histamine concentrations. Results suggest that the increased level of serum histamine is the consequence of the increased activity of histidine decarboxylase in the tissues and a rapid elimination of the newly formed histamine into the blood. This led us to consider that the flux rather than the formation of histamine might be regulatory for the actual concentration of the non-mast cell histamine, especially in stomach tissue.

Abstract
A method is described for the dissociation of guinea pig lung and mesentery into their component cells. The method comprises incubation of the tissues with the enzyme pronase in Ca++- and Mg++-free saline followed by mechanical dispersion and yields on average 3-8% free mast cells. These cells are morphologically intact and viable. They retain an active sensitization or can be passively sensitized. The levels of cAMP and cGMP in the whole cell suspension respond to catecholamine, histamine or cholinergic stimulation in a way similar to that observed in the corresponding undispersed tissue. Although the separation of guinea pig mast cells from other cells proved to be more difficult than the purification of rat mast cells, an inrichment of greater than 50% has been achieved. The mast cells isolated by this method proliferate in vitro and have been cultured successfully for several months.

Abstract
1 Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) suppressed compound 48/80-induced histamine release from rat peritoneal cells in vitro in a dose-dependent manner. 2 NSAID suppressed the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content of rat peritoneal cells in vitro and this correlated strongly with the suppression of compound 48/80-induced histamine release. 3 The correlation demonstrated suggests that the mechanism of action of NSAID in the rat peritoneal cells is via depletion of cellular ATP.

Abstract
Isolated tracheal preparations (ITP) were obtained from control guinea pigs and animals with acute and chronic experimental asthma (AA and CHA). It was observed that after in vitro antigen challenge, in addition to the classic Schultz-Dale response (the immediate increase in the tone of sensitized airway smooth muscle), a significant increase of the active state of airway smooth muscle was seen. This active state was observed as the potentiated, phasic, mechanical activities of ITP and was evaluated by both maximum active tension (AT max) and maximum rate of tension development (dT/dt). No apparent functional differences in the tonic response or the active state of airway smooth muscle between AA and CHA animals were found. Tracheas isolated from animals with CHA demonstrated smooth muscle hypertrophy as measured by wet, dry and relative weights of the tracheas. The repeated administration of antigen into the experimental bath was ineffective in inducing any physiological changes. The administration of histamine to ITP from control animals induced changes of mechanical activities of trachea comparable to those seen in both AA and CHA animals.

Abstract
The ATP content of rat peritoneal mast cells has been studied in relation to histamine release induced by compound 48/80 and antigen-antibody (anaphylactic) reaction in vitro. When the ATP content of actively sensitized mast cells was reduced to different levels by oligomycin, a good correlation was obtained between the ATP levels and the amounts of histamine released by the anaphylactic reaction. A similar linear relation has previously been demonstrated between the ATP levels of mast cells and histamine release induced by compound 48/80. The ATP content of mast cells was also studied at different intervals after the exposure of the cells to antigen or compound 48/80. No significant change in the ATP content was observed in untreated mast cells during the short period when histamine release occurs. If, however, the mast cells were preincubated with oligomycin or 2-deoxyglucose to reduce the rate of ATP synthesis while a large part of the histamine release remained unaffected-a decrease in the ATP content could be demonstrated in close time relation to both anaphylactic and compound 48/80-induced histamine release. The observations indicate an increased utilization of ATP in mast cells during the release process.

Abstract
The macrophage migration inhibition test has been used to study the immune responses of guinea-pigs immunized with injections of whole cells of both an allogeneic and a syngeneic hepatoma grown as established cell lines in tissue culture.A clear dose-response relationship between tumour cell concentration and migration inhibition was seen in immunized animals and no significant migration inhibition was seen in control animals. There was no cross reaction between the two tumours used. There was no cross reaction between whole isolated normal liver cells and tumour cells, or between foetal liver cells and tumour cells. Whole isolated liver cells from carbon tetrachloride damaged livers caused some degree of migration inhibition in both normal and immunized guinea-pigs but, taking this into account, they did not appear to cross react with hepatoma cells.
