In this report, we investigated the effect of an aqueous extract of <i>Dracocephalum argunense<\/i> Fisch. (Labiatae) (DAAE) on immediate-type hypersensitivity and studied its possible mechanisms of action, focusing on histamine release and proinflammatory cytokine expression in mast cells. <i>Methods:<\/i> An in vivo model of systemic and local allergic reaction was investigated. Compound 48\/80- or IgE-induced histamine release from mast cells was measured. The expression of proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-\u03b1 and IL-6 was measured by RT-PCR and ELISA. The level of intracellular calcium was measured by spectrofluorometry. NF-\u0138B activation was measured by Western blot, EMSA and luciferase assay. <i>Results:<\/i> DAAE inhibited systemic anaphylaxis, local allergic reactions, and serum histamine release in a dose-dependent manner in mice. DAAE dose-dependently reduced histamine release from mast cells activated by compound 48\/80 or IgE. The inhibitory effect of DAAE on histamine release was mediated by the modulation of intracellular calcium. In addition, DAAE decreased TNF-\u03b1 and IL-6 gene expression and production in human mast cells stimulated by phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) plus calcium ionophore A23187. The inhibitory effect of DAAE on the TNF-\u03b1 and IL-6 expression was NF-\u0138B dependent. <i>Conclusion:<\/i> Our findings provide evidence that DAAE inhibits mast-cell-derived immediate-type hypersensitivity. Taken together, the anti-allergic effect of DAAE in vivo and in vitro suggests a possible clinical use of this agent in immediate-type hypersensitivity.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000090383","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,12,21]],"date-time":"2005-12-21T15:40:16Z","timestamp":1135179616000},"page":"87-95","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":20,"title":["Effect of <i>Dracocephalum argunense<\/i> on Mast-Cell-Mediated Hypersensitivity"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"139","author":[{"given":"Sang-Hyun","family":"Kim","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tae-Yong","family":"Shin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,2,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0091-6749%2897%2970089-7"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0091-6749%2896%2970313-5"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1146%2Fannurev.pa.23.040183.001555"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1146%2Fannurev.iy.04.040186.002223"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1084%2Fjem.170.1.245"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0952-7915%2805%2980005-6"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038%2F339064a0"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2F0378-1097%2884%2990151-4"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000080038"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.taap.2003.11.020"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2F0167-5699%2893%2990167-J"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2F0014-5793%2890%2980023-C"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0898-6568%2800%2900070-X"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046%2Fj.1365-2567.1998.00425.x"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1006%2Fcyto.2002.0894"},{"key":"ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1073%2Fpnas.88.10.4220"},{"key":"ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2F0091-6749%2892%2990107-D"},{"key":"ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.bbamcr.2003.09.003"},{"key":"ref19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0898-6568%2802%2900005-0"},{"key":"ref20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002%2Feji.200425622"}],"container-title":["International Archives of Allergy and Immunology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/90383","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/90383","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,24]],"date-time":"2025-04-24T02:43:43Z","timestamp":1745462623000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000090383"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2006]]},"references-count":20,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,1,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000090383","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1018-2438","1423-0097"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1018-2438","type":"print"},{"value":"1423-0097","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2006]]}}}
