  • Title: Islet-activating protein, pertussis toxin, inhibits Ca2+-induced and guanine nucleotide-dependent releases of histamine and arachidonic acid from rat mast cells.
    Author: Nakamura T, Ui M.
    Journal: FEBS Lett; 1984 Aug 06; 173(2):414-8. PubMed ID: 6204890.
    Abstract:
    Islet-activating protein (IAP) suppressed Ca2+-induced histamine release and phospholipase A2 activation in Gpp(NH)p-loaded mast cells. Since the guanine nucleotide-binding protein involved in adenylate cyclase inhibition is known to lose its function upon being ADP-ribosylated by IAP, the nucleotide-binding protein is likely to mediate Ca2+-linked biosignalling leading to histamine secretion.
