FIG 2.
IAA mediates pathology through nischarin in a histamine-dependent manner. A, Ligand binding screen of histamine and IAA. B, Plasma histamine after IAA injection. *P < .05 by Student t test. Data representative of mean ± SEM for 3 to 4 animals per condition. C, Induction of anaphylaxis by IAA in WT and HDC KO mice. D, Anaphylaxis after IAA injection in Wsh mice, and Wsh mice reconstituted with WT or HDC KO BMMCs. E, Murine nischarin gene expression in PC-12 neuronal cells, RBL-2H3 mast cells, MC/9 mast cells, and BMMCs. Values above bars represent average delta Ct for nischarin versus β-actin. Relative copies of Nisch represent the number of nischarin mRNA copies per 104 copies of β-actin. n = 3 individual wells for each. F, Human nischarin gene expression from cultured iPSC-neuron cells, ROSAKIT WT mast cells, and cultured skin mast cells. Values above bars represent average delta Ct versus GAPDH. Relative copies of NISCH represent the number of nischarin mRNA copies per 104 copies of GAPDH (n = 1–3 individual wells for each). G, Effect of efaroxan administered 30 minutes before IAA
