Functional mast cells have been isolated from the lamina propria of the small intestine of rats infected with the nematode Nippostrongylus brasiliensis. The cells released histamine on challenge with specific antigen, anti-rat IgE, concanavalin A, and calcium ionophores but were less responsive than peritoneal mast cells (MMC) from the same animals. Intestinal mucosa mast cells (PMC) were refractory to the action of the basic secretagogues peptide 401 from bee venom and compound 48/80. The anti-allergic compounds disodium cromoglycate (less than or equal to 10(-3) M), AH 9679 (less than or equal to 10(-4) M), and theophylline (less than or equal to 10(-2)) did not inhibit antigen-induced histamine secretion by MMC, although these compounds were effective against PMC. In contrast, doxantrazole (10(-5) to 10(-3) M) inhibited the secretion of histamine from both MMC and PMC in a comparable dose-dependent fashion. Thus, we have established that mast cells from different sites are functionally heterogeneous not only in their response to various stimuli for histamine secretion, but also in their responses to different pharmacologic modulators of secretion. It cannot be assumed that anti-allergic compounds effective against mast cells in one tissue site or organ will be equally efficacious against mast cells in other sites. The extent of this functional heterogeneity must be established, and its investigation may provide new insights into the biochemical events involved in mast cell secretion.
