Mitoxantrone induces nonimmunological histamine release from rat mast cells
1996
The antineoplastic drug mitoxantrone (MTX) elicits a fast nocytotoxic and nonimmunological histamine release from peritoneal and pleural rat mast cells. The non specific phosphodiesterase inhibitor isobuthylmethylxantine (1 mM) decreases the potency of MTX. Theophylline (10 mM) decreases both the potency and the efficacy of MTX-induced histamine secretion. The protein kinase C (PKC) activator, tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (50 ng/mL), enhances the effect of MTX, whereas the non specific PKC inhibitor trifluoperazine (10 μM) exerts no effect.
