Abstract
The adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content of rat mast cells and their lactate production were measured during and after secretion of histamine induced by compound 48/80. Antimycin A and oligomycin were used to block oxidative ATP synthesis, and 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG) was used to block glycolytic ATP synthesis. Histamine secretion was completed after 10 sec. exposure of the cells to compound 48/80. During that time period there was an increased ATP-utilization of 0.15 pmol/10(3) cells. After completion of the secretory process there seemed to be an enhanced utilization of ATP of 0.40 pmol/10(3) cells/min., which may be associated with recovery of the cells.
