Trypsin activating both proteinase-activated receptor (PAR) 2 and PAR4 plays an important role in inflammation. We have investigated the potential of trypsin to induce TNF-alpha secretion from the human leukemic mast cell line (HMC-1). HMC-1 cells co-express both PAR2 and PAR4, and their agonist trypsin signals to HMC-1 cells. Trypsin (100 nm), SLIGKV-NH(2) (100 microm, corresponding to the PAR2 tethered ligand), or GYPGQV-NH(2) (100 microm, corresponding to the PAR4 tethered ligand) induced tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha secretion from HMC-1 cells. TNF-alpha secretion by trypsin was significantly blocked by pretreatment with 50 microm PD098059, MEK-1 inhibitor. Furthermore, trypsin stimulated the activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) in HMC-1 cells without any detectable activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 MAP kinase homologue. These results show that trypsin may induce TNF-alpha secretion following activation of ERK via both PAR2 and PAR4 on HMC-1 cells.
