Thapsigargin, which elevates cytosolic calcium levels by inhibiting the sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum calcium-dependent ATPase, was tested for its ability to degranulate bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs) from src homology 2-containing inositol phosphatase +/+ (SHIP+/+) and SHIP-/- mice. As was found previously with steel factor, thapsigargin stimulated far more degranulation in SHIP-/- than in SHIP+/+ BMMCs, and this was blocked with the phosphatidylinositol-3 (PI-3) kinase inhibitors, LY294002 and wortmannin. In contrast to steel factor, however, this heightened degranulation of SHIP-/- BMMCs was not due to a greater calcium influx into these cells, nor was the thapsigargin-induced calcium influx inhibited by LY294002, suggesting that the heightened thapsigargin-induced degranulation of SHIP-/- BMMCs was due to a PI-3 kinase-regulated step distinct from that regulating calcium entry. An investigation of thapsigargin-stimulated pathways in both cell types revealed that MAPK was heavily but equally phosphorylated. Interestingly, the protein kinase C inhibitor, bisindolylmaleimide (compound 3), totally blocked thapsigargin-induced degranulation in both SHIP+/+ and SHIP-/- BMMCs. As well, thapsigargin stimulated a PI-3 kinase-dependent, transient activation of protein kinase B, and this activation was far greater in SHIP-/- than in SHIP+/+ BMMCs. Consistent with this, thapsigargin was found to be a potent survival factor, following cytokine withdrawal, for both cell types and was more potent with SHIP-/- cells. These studies have both identified an additional PI-3 kinase-dependent step within the mast cell degranulation process, possibly involving 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase-1 and a diacylglycerol-independent protein kinase C isoform, and shown that the tumor-promoting activity of thapsigargin may be due to its activation of protein kinase B and subsequent promotion of cell survival.
