To resolve the controversy regarding substance P (SP) mediated stimulation of mast cells (MC), we demonstrate that SP triggers histamine release from purified human skin MC (sMC), but contrast to stimulation via Fc epsilon RI, does not effect the production of TNF-alpha or IL-8. Conversely, both anti-IgE and SP are suppressive in terms of IL-6. By quantitative RT-PCR, the amount of templates at baseline (per 25 ng total RNA) is 2178 (IL-6), 2,665 (IL-8) and 94 (TNF-alpha), and remains unaltered by SP. Contrast to sMC, LAD2 MC respond to SP with stronger histamine release and robust TNF-alpha production in an only partially neurokinin-1R mediated manner, while histamine release of sMC is chiefly mediated by this receptor. We conclude that human sMC are responsive to SP in a selective manner by eliciting degranulation without the induction of cytokines and that SP-triggered cytokine production varies among MC subtypes, likely through differences in signaling mechanisms.
