KIRA6 is an Effective and Versatile Mast Cell Inhibitor of IgE-mediated Activation.

ABSTRACT: Mast cell (MC)-driven allergic diseases are constantly expanding and require the development of novel pharmacological MC stabilizers. Allergen/antigen (Ag)-triggered activation via crosslinking of the high-affinity receptor for IgE (FcεRI) is fundamentally regulated by SRC family kinases, for example, LYN and FYN, exhibiting positive and negative functions. We report that KIRA6, an inhibitor for the endoplasmic reticulum stress sensor IRE1α, suppresses IgE-mediated MC activation by inhibiting both LYN and FYN. KIRA6 attenuates Ag-stimulated early signaling and effector functions such as degranulation and proinflammatory cytokine production/secretion in murine bone marrow-derived MCs. Moreover, Ag-triggered bronchoconstriction in an ex vivo model and IgE-mediated stimulation of human MCs we
