Label-Free Quantitative Proteomic Profiling of LAD2 Mast Cell Releasates Reveals the Mechanism of Tween-80-Induced Anaphylactoid Reaction.

Purpose: Tween-80 is one of the most important causes resulting in anaphylactoid reaction. However, its mechanism remains unclear. Proteomic characterizations of mast cells' excreta in response to Tween-80 are assayed to investigate the mechanism of anaphylactoid reaction.

Experimental Design: A label-free LCMS/MS-based proteomics is used to analyze Tween-80-stimulated Laboratory of Allergic Diseases 2 (LAD2) mast cells releasates. The results of proteomic are analyzed by bioinformatics analysis. Western blotting is used to verify the expression of proteins.

Results: Overall, endocytosis, nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB), and calcium signaling pathways play important roles in Tween-80-induced LAD2 cells activation by bioinformatics analysis. The expressions of relative proteins including actin-related protein 2/3 complexes, vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein, phosphorylation of transcription factor of P105 and P65, phosphorylation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP R), phosphoinositide phospholipase Cγ (PLCγ), and protein kinase C (PKC), are significantly increased in Tween-80 group compared to control. Tween-80 might be internalized via endocytosis, which induces degranulation by PLCγ/PKC pathways mediated calcium influx, and promotes the generation of inflammatory mediators via NF-κB pathway resulting in anaphylactoid reaction.
