Adapters in the organization of mast cell signaling

Abstract: Summary Mast cells are pivotal in innate immunity and play an important role in amplifying adaptive immunity. Nonetheless, they have long been known to be central to the initiation of allergic disorders. This results from the dysregulation of the immune response whereby normally innocuous substances are recognized as non-self, resulting in the production of IgE antibodies to these ‘allergens’. Preformed and newly synthesized inflammatory (allergic) mediators are released from the mast cell following allergen-m… Show more

“…In mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells, low valency ligands, which may have strong pathobiological relevance, have been shown to favor cytokine production as opposed to degranulation [37]. Ability to phosphorylate the adapter protein linker of activated T-cells-1 (LAT1) has been suggested to underlie this selectivity [38]. Whilst the IgE and antigen used to activate HMCα cells was able to elicit degranulation in RBLα cells, the latter cells express higher levels of human FcεRI and so larger receptor aggregates with 'stronger' signaling capacity may have been generated in this case.…”

“…PIP 3 produced by PI3Kd retains proteins containing plextrin homology (PH) domains at the plasma membrane, such as PLCg, Gab2, Akt, and Btk. The kinase Btk phosphorylates and enhances the activity of PLCg (Alvarez-Errico et al 2009). …”

“…Mast cells express high levels of the high affinity receptor for IgE, FcεRI, which is comprised of four non-covalently associated polypeptides, the IgE-binding α-chain, the signal transduction amplifying β-chain, and the signal inducing γ-chain [1,2]. Both the β-and γ-chain contain an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) that encodes the consensus sequence (D/E)XXYXXLX 7-11 -YXXL(L/I) [3].…”
