Involvement of the ras-like GTPase rab3d in RBL-2H3 mast cell exocytosis following stimulation via high affinity IgE receptors (Fc epsilonRI)

Aggregation of high affinity IgE receptors (Fc epsilonRI) expressed on mast cells and basophils is a potent stimulus for the release of inflammatory mediators from cytoplasmic granules. Fc epsilonRI- dependent exocytosis requires activation of protein kinase C and mobilization of calcium from intra- and extracellular stores. However, how these events ultimately regulate the membrane fusion step between cytoplasmic granules and the plasma membrane still remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the role of the small GTPases of the rab3 subfamily in the regulated exocytosis following stimulation of rat basophilic leukemia cells (RBL-2H3). Analysis using reverse- transcriptase-based PCR showed that RBL-2H3 cells expressed rab3a and rab3d isoforms, with a predominance of rab3d at the mRNA level. Investigation of the subcellular distribution using isoform-specific Abs demonstrated that the majority of rab3a was expressed in the cytosol, whereas rab3d was found predominantly in the membrane fraction. To determine whether these proteins play a role in Fc epsilonRI-triggered exocytosis, we established RBL-2H3 transfectants that overexpressed wild-type and expressed GTP-binding mutant forms (N135I) of rab3a and rab3d. Whereas expression of rab3a proteins did not significantly affect degranulation as tested by beta-hexosaminidase release, those of both wild-type and mutant rab3d proteins inhibited degranulation. Calculations of the initial fast and of the second slow release rates showed that they are both inhibited about twofold, suggesting that rab3d interferes with a rate-limiting step in Fc epsilonRI-stimulated exocytosis.
