Our studies in the RBL-2H3 mast cell line suggest that responses to antigen (Ag) are negatively modulated through upregulation of
Src-like adaptor protein
(
SLAP
). Ag stimulation of RBL-2H3 cells leads to increased levels of
SLAP
(but not SLAP2) transcripts and protein over a period of several hours. The effects of pharmacologic inhibitors indicate that the upregulation of
SLAP
is dependent on multiple signaling pathways. Knockdown of
SLAP
with anti-
SLAP
siRNA is associated with enhanced phosphorylation of Syk, the linker for activation of T cells (LAT), phospholipase C gamma,
MAP
kinases, and various transcription factors. Production of IL-3 and MCP-1, but not degranulation, is also enhanced. The upregulation of
SLAP
may thus serve to limit the duration of cytokine production in Ag-stimulated cells.
