Tetrahydrobiopterin, a Critical Factor in the Production and Role of Nitric Oxide in Mast Cells

Mast cells (MC) are biologically potent, ubiquitously distributed immune cells with fundamental roles in host integrity and disease. MC diversity and function is regulated by exogenous nitric oxide; however, the production and function of endogenously produced NO in MC is enigmatic. We used rat peritoneal MC (PMC) as an in vivo model to examine intracellular NO production. Live cell confocal analysis of PMC using the NO-sensitive probe diaminofluorescein showed distinct patterns of intracellular NO formation with either antigen (Ag)/IgE (short term) or interferon-γ (IFN-γ) (long term). Ag/IgE-induced NO production is preceded by increased intracellular Ca2+, implying constitutive nitric-oxide synthase (NOS) activity. NO formation inhibits MC degranulation. NOS has obligate requirements for tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), a product of GTP-cyclohydrolase I (CHI), IFN-γ-stimulated PMC increased CHI mRNA, protein, and enzymatic activity, while decreasing CHI feedback regulatory protein mRNA, causing sustained NO production. Treatment with the CHI inhibitor, 2,4-diamino-6-hydroxypyrimidine, inhibited NO in and MC degranulation. with the exogenous NO formation and inhibited and intracellular NO a in MC and in NOS to the of Mast cells (MC) are biologically potent, ubiquitously distributed immune cells with fundamental roles in host integrity and disease.
