1 Interleukin-6 potentiates FcepsilonRI-induced PGD2 biosynthesis and induces VEGF from human in situ-matured skin mast cells. Prostaglandin D2 Fc epsilon receptor Ia Homo sapiens
2 RESULTS: IL-6 significantly potentiated FcepsilonRI-induced PGD2 biosynthesis, but had no effect on degranulation. Prostaglandin D2 Fc epsilon receptor Ia Homo sapiens
3 Mechanistically, IL-6 enhanced FcepsilonRI-induced COX-2 expression, PGD2 biosynthesis, and VEGF production in a STAT3 dependent manner. Prostaglandin D2 Fc epsilon receptor Ia Homo sapiens
4 CONCLUSION: Here, we demonstrate that IL-6 is a potentiator of FcepsilonRI-induced PGD2 biosynthesis, and can induce or enhance production of pro-angiogenesis factors VEGF and IL-8 from human in situ-matured skin mast cells. Prostaglandin D2 Fc epsilon receptor Ia Homo sapiens
