Tumor Necrosis Factor-α Develops Late Anaphylactic Reaction through Cytosolic Phospholipase A<sub>2</sub> Activation

Abstract: Background: We have recently reported that tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α plays an important role in the development of a late anaphylactic reaction, but the downstream pathway beyond TNF-α remains unclear. Objective: It was the aim of this study to examine whether TNF-α induces late-phase anaphylaxis via the activation of cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2). Methods: Using a murine model of active systemic anaphylaxis to penicillin V, the induction of the late phase of anaphylaxis was quan… Show more

“…In late-phase reactions, inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-13 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-a, are synthesized Galli 1990, 1991;Burd et al 1995). These cytokines contribute to the development of allergic symptoms through the mechanisms of class switching for IgE production from plasma cells (Cameron et al 2000) and activation of phospholipase A 2 (Kang et al 2008). The release of arachidonic acids by the action of activated phospholipase A 2 in response to the degranulation signalling further leads to the formation of metabolites, including leukotrienes (LTs) and prostaglandins (PGs; Seeds and Bass 1999).…”

“…TNF-α has been implicated as one factor responsible for symptoms of the late-phase anaphylactic response [26, 27] and as a cryogenic factor during mast cell-dependent hypothermia [28] or acute bacterial infection [29]. We therefore considered TNF-α as a possible candidate for the slow recovery of Trpc1 −/− mice from anaphylactic hypothermia.…”

“…Both early and late-phase responses fail to occur if mast cells lack IκB kinase (IKK) 2 [52], disrupting IgE-mediated activation. TNF has been described as regulating late-phase inflammation [40], perhaps via phospholipase A2 activation [53], but this effect is only partial. Our data now demonstrates that IL-33 is a critical cytokine in regulating the late-phase response.…”
