Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) has long been recognized as a second messenger for intracellular Ca2+ mobilization. Recently, sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) has been shown to be involved in Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Here, we investigated the role of S1P and IP3 in antigen (Ag)-induced intracellular Ca2+ mobilization in RBL-2H3 mast cells.
