1We determined the effect of cyclosporine A (CsA) treatment on mast cell degranulation and lung resistance (RL)in vivo, and tracheal smooth muscle (TSM) contractionex vivoafter antigen challenge in sensitized cats. We also determined the direct effects of addition of CsA to the tissue bath on antigen‐induced responses of TSMin vitro.2Cats (n=10) were sensitized by i.m. injection ofAscaris suumantigen (AA); 5 cats (CsA+) received CsA twice daily for 2 weeks before acute antigen challenge in doses sufficient to suppress interleukin‐2 secretion from feline peripheral blood mononuclear cellsex vivo.3Lung resistance increased comparably within 10 min of exposure to AA (P<0.03). Histamine content in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from both groups increased comparably within 30 min of antigen challenge, from undetectable levels to 542±74 pg ml−1post AA for CsA+ and from 74±19 pg ml−1at baseline, to 970±180 pg ml−1post AA CsA− (P<0.05;P=NS vs CsA+).4In excised TSM, active tension elicited by exposure to AAin vitrowas 107±38% KCl in the CsA+ group vs 144±56% KCl in the CsA− group (P=NS). However, contraction of TSM (n=4) harvested from both groups was abolished or greatly diminished after AA challenge when tissues were pre‐incubated with 1 μMCsAin vitro(8±8% KCl,P<0.05 vs CsA+ and CsA−). This was associated with inhibited release of 5‐hydroxytryptamine into the organ bath fluid of tissues treated with CsAin vitroonly.5We demonstrated that CsA treatmentin vivodoes not inhibit the early phase asthmatic response or mast cell degranulation following antigen challenge in sensitized cats. Additionally, the effects of CsA on mast cell functionex vivodo not reflect lack of effects of CsA on mast cell functionin vivoin this animal model of atopic asthma.British Journal of Pharmacology(1998)123, 1198–1204; doi:10.1038/sj.bjp.0701716
