Then various concentrations(2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 and256 mmol/L) of the peptide were incubated with mast cells and lactate dehydrogenase assay was performed.Results: No significant effect was observed in lactate dehydrogenase absorbance under128 mmol/L concentration. This implied that the peptide did not cause cell death in mast cells and consequently, histamine release did not happen. Moreover, the results showed the IC50 of mast cells degranulation at 126 mmol/L, which was approximately high implying that this peptide had high selectivity for normal cells and did not cause histamine release from these cells.Conclusions: This would be a great aim in new drug development, in which an agent acts potentially on its target tissue without activating the immune system.展开更多
