A wasp venom mastoparan-induced polyphosphoinositide breakdown in rat peritoneal mast cells

The phospholipid metabolism of rat peritoneal mast cells stimulated with mastoparan, a secretagogue purified from wasp venom, was investigated. Mastoparan at 20 μg ml caused a rapid secretion of histamine. Mastoparan induced a transient decrease of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate on 32P labeli...

Zusammenfassung:The phospholipid metabolism of rat peritoneal mast cells stimulated with mastoparan, a secretagogue purified from wasp venom, was investigated. Mastoparan at 20 μg ml caused a rapid secretion of histamine. Mastoparan induced a transient decrease of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate on 32P labeling and generation of a water-soluble degradation product, inositol trisphosphate on [ 3H]inositol labeling, suggesting the activation of phospholipase C upon stimulation.
