Mast cells are key effector cells in allergic reactions. Aggregation of the receptor FcepsilonRI in mast cells triggers the influx of calcium (Ca(2+)) and the release of inflammatory mediators. Here we show that transient receptor potential TRPM4 proteins acted as calcium-activated nonselective cation channels and critically determined the driving force for Ca(2+) influx in mast cells. Trpm4(-/-) bone marrow-derived mast cells had more Ca(2+) entry than did TRPM4(+/+) cells after FcepsilonRI stimulation. Consequently, Trpm4(-/-) bone marrow-derived mast cells had augmented degranulation and released more histamine, leukotrienes and tumor necrosis factor. Trpm4(-/-) mice had a more severe IgE-mediated acute passive cutaneous anaphylactic response, whereas late-phase passive cutaneous anaphylaxis was not affected. Our results establish the physiological function of TRPM4 channels as critical regulators of Ca(2+) entry in mast cells.
肥大细胞是过敏反应中的关键效应细胞。肥大细胞中FcepsilonRI受体的聚集会触发钙(Ca(2+))内流并释放炎症介质。在此我们表明,瞬时受体电位TRPM4蛋白作为钙激活的非选择性阳离子通道,关键地决定了肥大细胞中Ca(2+)内流的驱动力。FcepsilonRI刺激后,Trpm4(-/-)骨髓来源的肥大细胞比TRPM4(+/+)细胞有更多的Ca(2+)内流。因此,Trpm4(-/-)骨髓来源的肥大细胞脱颗粒增加,释放更多的组胺、白三烯和肿瘤坏死因子。Trpm4(-/-)小鼠有更严重的IgE介导的急性被动皮肤过敏反应,而迟发性被动皮肤过敏反应不受影响。我们的结果确立了TRPM4通道作为肥大细胞中Ca(2+)内流关键调节因子的生理功能。
