Mast cells have been shown to produce endothelin‐1 (ET‐1) and to express ET receptors. Thus, we postulated that ETs modulate mast cell mediator production in an autocrine manner. Rat tissue‐cultured mast cells (RCMC‐1) were incubated with exogenous ET‐1 or ET‐3, and β‐hexosaminidase release and TNF, IL‐4, IL‐10, IL‐12, IL‐13, macrophage inflammatory protein‐1α (MIP‐1α), and nitric oxide (NO) production were investigated. ET‐1 and ‐3 induced the release of β‐hexosaminidase and TNF and of mRNA expression. An antagonist of the ETB receptor subtype abrogated ET‐stimulated TNF release, although ETA and ETB receptors have been identified by immunocytochemistry. It is interesting that ET‐1 and ET‐3 inhibited (25–30%) mRNA expression of Th2‐type cytokines (IL‐4, IL‐10, and IL‐13) and increased IL‐12 release (39% and 41%, respectively) without affecting MIP‐1α and NO production. Thus, our data suggest that ETs may play an important role in modulating the cytokine network by regulating Th1/Th2 cytokine production by mast cells.
