Chrysin Inhibits Pseudo-Allergic Reaction By Suppressing Mitochondrial Stat3 Activation Via Mas-Related Gpr Family Member X2
JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD CHEMISTRY(2021)
Abstract
Chrysin, one of the most pharmacologically active natural flavonoids, has been extracted from various plants. Mast cells are an important part of innate immunity-mediating anaphylaxis. Pseudo-allergic reactions are currently believed to be associated with the MAS-related GPR family member X2 (MrgX2). In this study, the anti-pseudo allergy effect of chrysin and its underlying mechanisms were studied in vitro and in vivo. Chrysin inhibited passive cutaneous anaphylaxis and systemic pseudo-allergy in vivo. LAD2 cell degranulation, calcium ion (Ca2+) influx, and adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) content were significantly suppressed in a dose-dependent manner. Chrysin suppressed pseudo-allergic reactions through the PLC/IP3/Ca2+ and ERK/STAT3 serine 727 pathways downstream of MrgX2. Therefore, mitochondrial ATP, but not glycolysis, is vital for pseudo-allergic reactions mediated by MrgX2. This study provides new insights for the treatment of pseudo-allergy.
