Although the 2 1 integrin is widely expressed and has been extensively studied, it has not been previously implicated in mast cell biology. We observed that 2 integrin subunit-deficient mice exhibited markedly diminished neutrophil and IL-6 responses during Listeria monocytogenes- and zymosan-induced peritonitis. Since exudative neutrophils of wild-type mice expressed little 2 1 integrin, it seemed unlikely that this integrin mediated neutrophil migration directly. Here we demonstrate constitutive 2 1 integrin expression on peritoneal mast cells. Although 2-null mice contain normal numbers of peritoneal mast cells, these 2-null cells do not support in vivo mast cell-dependent inflammatory responses. We conclude that 2 1 integrin provides a costimulatory function required for mast cell activation and cytokine production in response to infection.
