However, the physiological roles of its human homologue MRGPRX2 remain unclear. Here we aimed to elucidate the mechanisms by which MRGPRX2 regulates vascular permeability, and generated MRGPRX2 knock-in (MRGPRX2-KI) and Mrgprb2 knockout (Mrgprb2-KO) mice. Substance P (SP) and ciprofloxacin strongly degranulated MRGPRX2-KI peritoneal mast cells (PMCs) better than WT PMCs, whereas Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (Der p) extract and phenol-soluble modulin α3 (PSMα3) did not degranulate PMCs. SP-stimulated MRGPRX2-KI PMCs released large amounts of histamine and mast cell protease 4 (MCPT4) chymase. Der p extract, PSMα3, and MCPT4, but not histamine, induced SP release from dorsal root ganglion (DRG) cells. However, this effect of Der p extract/PSMα3 was suppressed by a transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) antagonist. SP-, ciprofloxacin-, Der p extract-, PSMα3-, and MCPT4-induced vascular permeability was highest in MRGPRX2-KI mice, which depended on SP. In addition, SP-, ciprofloxacin- and PSMα3-induced MRGPRX2-dependent vascular hyperpermeability was suppressed by antihistamine and chymase inhibitor. TRPV1 antagonist also inhibited PSMα3-induced MRGPRX2-dependent vascular hyperpermeability. Both Mrgprb2-KO and MRGPRX2-KI did not influence the histamine-induced murine vascular hyperpermeability. Overall, our results suggest that neuronal SP induces MRGPRX2-dependent mast cell degranulation, releasing histamine and chymase, which promote vascular hyperpermeability directly or indirectly via DRG cell activation. Importantly, the worsening cycle (MRGPRX2 → mast cell degranulation → chymase → DRG activation → SP → MRGPRX2) seems to play an important role in human MRGPRX2-depdendent inflammation.
