ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Mast cells (MCs) are tissue-resident immune cells that mediate IgE-dependent allergic responses. Downstream of FcεRI, an intricate network of receptor-specific signaling pathways and adaptor proteins govern MC function. The 14-3-3 family of serine-threonine phosphorylation-dependent adapter proteins are known to organize intracellular signaling. However, the role of 14-3-3 in IgE-dependent activation remains poorly defined.OBJECTIVE:
We sought to determine whether 14-3-3 proteins are required for IgE-dependent MC activation and whether 14-3-3 is a viable target for the treatment of MC-mediated inflammatory diseases.METHODS:
Genetic manipulation of 14-3-3ζ expression in human and mouse MCs was performed and IgE-dependent mediator release assessed. Pharmacologic inhibitors of 14-3-3 and 14-3-3ζ knockout mice were used to assess 14-3-3ζ function in a MC-dependent in vivo passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) model of allergic inflammation. Expression and function of 14-3-3ζ were assessed in human nasal polyp tissue MCs.RESULTS:
IgE-dependent mediator release from human MCs was decreased by 14-3-3ζ knockdown and increased by 14-3-3ζ overexpression. Deletion of the 14-3-3ζ gene decreased IgE-dependent activation of mouse MCs in vitro and PCA responses in vivo. Furthermore, the 14-3-3 inhibitor, RB-11, which impairs dimerization of 14-3-3, inhibited cultured MC and polyp tissue MC activation and signaling downstream of the FcεRI receptor and dose-dependently attenuated PCA responses.CONCLUSION:
IgE/FcεRI-mediated MC activation is positively regulated by 14-3-3ζ. We identify a critical role for this p-Ser/Thr-binding protein in the regulation of MC FcεRI signaling and IgE-dependent immune responses and show that this pathway may be amenable to pharmacologic targeting.Palavras-chave
