Abstract:
:Mast cells are a type of immune cell widely distributed in the body of vertebrates. Mast cells have many granules that contain several bioactive molecules such as histamine, and these molecules are released through degranulation when the mast cell receives certain stimuli. Because the number of mast cells increases during infection in chickens (Gallus gallus), the activity of mast cells might be related to non-specific symptoms such as anorexia under an infectious condition. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to investigate whether intraperitoneal (IP) and intracerebroventricular (ICV) injections of compound 48/80, which induces degranulation of mast cells, affects feeding, voluntary activity, cloacal temperature, and the concentrations of plasma corticosterone (CORT) and glucose in chicks. The effect of histamine, which is found in mast cell granules, on these parameters was also investigated. IP injection of compound 48/80 significantly decreased food intake, voluntary activity, and cloacal temperature, and increased plasma CORT concentration in the chicks. While ICV injection of compound 48/80 also decreased food intake, it increased cloacal temperature and plasma glucose concentration. Both IP and ICV injections of histamine significantly decreased food intake, cloacal temperature, and plasma CORT concentration. However, only IP injection of histamine significantly decreased voluntary activity and increased plasma glucose concentration. The results suggest that degranulation of mast cells is related to non-specific symptoms in chicks, although the mechanism seems to be different between peripheral and central tissues. In addition, the effect of peripherally-injected compound 48/80 may be partly mediated by histamine.
