BACKGROUND: Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor X2 (MRGPRX2) is a promiscuous receptor on mast cells that mediates IgE-independent degranulation and has been implicated in multiple mast cell-mediated disorders, including chronic urticaria, atopic dermatitis, and pain disorders. Although it is a promising therapeutic target, few potent, selective, small molecule antagonists have been identified, and functional effects of human MRGPRX2 inhibition have not been evaluated in vivo.
OBJECTIVE: We sought to identify and characterize novel, potent, and selective orally active small molecule MRGPRX2 antagonists for potential treatment of mast cell-mediated disease.
METHODS: Antagonists were identified using multiple functional assays in cell lines overexpressing human MRGPRX2, LAD2 mast cells, human peripheral stem cell-derived mast cells, and isolated skin mast cells. Skin mast cell degranulation was evaluated in Mrgprb2em(-/-) knockout and Mrgprb2em(MRGPRX2) transgenic human MRGPRX2 knock-in mice by assessment of agonist-induced skin vascular permeability. Ex vivo skin mast cell degranulation and associated histamine release was evaluated by microdialysis of human skin tissue samples.
RESULTS: MRGPRX2 antagonists potently inhibited agonist-induced MRGPRX2 activation and mast cell degranulation in all mast cell types tested in an IgE-independent manner. Orally administered MRGPRX2 antagonists also inhibited agonist-induced degranulation and resulting vascular permeability in MRGPRX2 knock-in mice. In addition, antagonist treatment dose dependently inhibited agonist-induced degranulation in ex vivo human skin.
CONCLUSIONS: MRGPRX2 small molecule antagonists potently inhibited agonist-induced mast cell degranulation in vitro and in vivo as well as ex vivo in human skin, supporting potential therapeutic utility as a novel treatment for multiple human diseases involving clinically relevant mast cell activation.
