Sulphated glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) such as heparin are a major component of mast cell granules and form the matrix within which biogenic mediators are stored. Since GAGs released from mast cells also play an important role in helminth expulsion, understanding GAG storage can offer new insights into mast cell function. Sodium butyrate (NaBu), a short-chain fatty acid, causes ultrastructural changes within the granules of human mast cells (HMC-1) and increases their histamine content. Therefore, we hypothesized that NaBu treatment would also modify the storage of polysaccharides such as GAGs. NaBu (1 mM) significantly increased GAG content and granularity in a time- and concentration-dependent manner without affecting cell viability and metabolic activity. NaBu increased the expression of enzymes associated with heparin biosynthesis (GLCE, NDST1, NDST2, HS6ST1, and GALT1) in a time-dependent manner. A cholesteryl butyrate emulsion (CholButE) increased heparin content after 24 and 48 h and modestly altered the expression of genes involved in heparin biosynthesis. Similar to NaBu, CholButE reduced cell proliferation without significantly altering viability or metabolic activity. These data show that butyrate increases the synthesis and storage of heparin in human mast cells, perhaps by altering their metabolic pathways. |
