  • Histamine-induced ion secretion across rat distal colon: involvement of histamine H1 and H2 receptors. 16919622

    The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of histamine, a product of e.g. mast cells, on short-circuit current (I(sc)) across rat distal colon. Histamine concentration-dependently stimulated an increase in I(sc), which often was preceded by a transient negative current. Neither a release of neurotransmitters nor a release of prostaglandins contributed to the histamine response. The histamine-induced increase in I(sc) was blocked by the histamine H(1) antagonist, pyrilamine, but was resistant against the histamine H(2) antagonist, cimetidine. Conversely, the histamine H(1) agonist, TMPH (2-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)histamine), exclusively evoked an increase in I(sc), whereas the histamine H(2) agonist, amthamine, evoked only a decrease in I(sc) suggesting that stimulation of different types of histamine receptors is responsible for the two phases of the response evoked by native histamine. Histamine induces the opening of glibenclamide-sensitive Cl(-) channels and of charybdotoxin-sensitive K(+) channels in the apical membrane as demonstrated by experiments at basolaterally depolarized epithelia. A further action site is the basolateral membrane, because histamine stimulates a charybdotoxin- and tetrapentylammonium-sensitive K(+) conductance in this membrane as observed in tissues, in which the apical membrane was permeabilized with an ionophore, nystatin. The increase in I(sc) evoked by histamine was blocked after depletion of intracellular Ca(2+) stores with cyclopiazonic acid and after blockade of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) receptors, suggesting a release of stored Ca(2+). This was confirmed by the observation that the histamine H(1) agonist TMPH induced an increase in the fura-2 ratio signal of epithelial cells within isolated colonic crypts. Consequently, the mediator histamine seems to stimulate both histamine H(1) and H(2) receptors, from which the former seems to be prominently involved in the induction of epithelial chloride secretion.

  • Antagonism of the histamine H4 receptor reduces LPS-induced TNF production in vivo. 23532396

    Antagonism of the histamine H4 receptor (H4R) has been shown to be anti-inflammatory in a number of preclinical disease models, however the exact mechanisms behind this are still being uncovered. In vitro, the receptor interacts with TLR and impacts inflammatory mediator production from a number of different cell types. Here it is shown that this interaction also occurs in vivo.Wild-type and H4R deficient BALB/c mice received an i.p. injection of LPS in PBS in conjunction with p.o. JNJ 7777120 or JNJ 28307474 (H4R antagonists). Two hours later blood was collected and TNF was measured.Two different H4R antagonists inhibited LPS-induced TNF production in mice and this production was also reduced in H4R-deficient mice. The TNF mRNA analysis showed that the major source of the cytokine was the liver and not blood, and that the H4R antagonist only reduced the expression levels in the liver. Depletion or inactivation of macrophages reduced the TNF levels and eliminated the H4R sensitivity. Treatment with an H4R antagonist also reduced LPS-induced liver injury and blocked LPS-enhanced lung inflammation in mice.The data support an interaction between H4R and TLR activation in vivo that can drive inflammatory responses.

  • Characterization of Cbl-Nck and Nck-Pak1 interactions in myeloid FcgammaRII signaling. 9851874

    Fc receptors modulate inflammatory processes, including phagocytosis, serotonin and histamine release, superoxide production, and secretion of cytokines. Aggregation of FcgammaRIIa, the low-affinity receptor for monomeric IgG, activates nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinases such as Lyn, Hck, and Syk, potentially driving the phosphorylation of the downstream adaptor proteins, including Cbl and/or Nck. Previous work from our laboratory using interferon-gamma-differentiated U937 (U937IF) myeloid cells investigated mechanisms which regulate Fcgamma receptor-induced assembly of adaptor complexes. Herein we report that FcgammaRII receptor signaling in U937IF and HEL cells involves Cbl and Nck, suggesting that Cbl-Nck interactions may link FcgammaRII to downstream activation of Pak kinase. FcgammaRII crosslinking induced the phosphorylation of Cbl and Nck on tyrosine. The alphaCbl immunoprecipitations revealed constitutive binding of Nck and Grb2 to Cbl and FcgammaRII-inducible binding of CrkL to Cbl. The interactions of Cbl with Nck and CrkL were phosphorylation dependent since dephosphorylation of cellular proteins with potato acid phosphatase abrogated binding. GST-Nck fusion protein pulldown experiments show that Cbl and Pak1 bind to the second SH3 domain of Nck. A specific Src inhibitor, PP1, was shown to completely abrogate the FcgammaR-induced superoxide response, correlating with a decrease in Cbl and Nck tyrosine phosphorylation. Our results provide the first evidence that Src is required for FcgammaR activation of the respiratory burst in myeloid cells and suggest that Cbl-Nck, Cbl-Pak1, and Nck-Pak1 interactions may regulate this response.

  • G proteins of the Gq family couple the H2 histamine receptor to phospholipase C. 8961278

    In several cell systems histamine has been shown to stimulate both adenylyl cyclase and phospholipase C through activation of a G protein-coupled H2 receptor. To analyze the bifurcating signal emanating from the activated H2 receptor and to identify the G proteins involved, H1 and H2 histamine receptors were functionally expressed in baculovirus-infected insect cells. Histamine challenge lead to concentration-dependent cAMP formation and Ca2+ mobilization in Sf9 cells infected with a virus encoding the H2 receptor, whereas H1 receptor stimulation only resulted in pronounced phospholipase C activation. To analyze the G protein coupling pattern of histamine receptors, activated G proteins were labeled with [alpha-32P]GTP azidoanilide and identified by selective immunoprecipitation. In insect cell membranes expressing H1 histamine receptors, histamine led to incorporation of the label into alpha q-like proteins, whereas activation of the H2 receptor resulted in labeling of alpha q- and alpha s-like G protein alpha-subunits. In COS cells transfected with H2 receptor complementary DNA, histamine caused concentration-dependent accumulation of cAMP and inositol phosphates; the latter effect was insensitive to pertussis toxin treatment. Histamine stimulation led to a pronounced increase in inositol phosphate production when complementary DNAs coding for alpha q, alpha 11, alpha 14, or alpha 15 G protein alpha-subunits were cotransfected. This increase was specific for Gq family members, as overexpression of alpha 12 or alpha s did not enhance histamine-stimulated phospholipase C activation. In membranes of guinea pig heart, addition of [alpha-32P]GTP azidoanilide resulted in labeling of alpha q and alpha 11 via the activated H1 and also via H2 receptors. These data demonstrate that dual signaling of the activated H2 histamine receptor is mediated by coupling of the receptor to Gs and Gq family members.

  • Allelic variations of the human histamine H2 receptor gene. 8817552

    The gene encoding the human histamine H2 receptor (H2R) has previously been cloned and sequenced from gastric cDNA. Following PCR amplification of a fragment of the H2R gene from total human DNA, three single nucleotide base substitutions were observed and confirmed when compared with the previously published sequence. One of these base changes introduces an additional TaqI restriction endonuclease site in the coding portion of the gene. PCR amplification of human H2R gene fragments followed by cleavage with TaqI demonstrated the existence of allelic variation of the human H2R gene.

  • Histamine H3 receptors aggravate cerebral ischaemic injury by histamine-independent mechanisms. 24566390

    The role of the histamine H3 receptor (H3R) in cerebral ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury remains unknown. Here we show that H3R expression is upregulated after I/R in two mouse models. H3R antagonists and H3R knockout attenuate I/R injury, which is reversed by an H3R-selective agonist. Interestingly, H1R and H2R antagonists, a histidine decarboxylase (HDC) inhibitor and HDC knockout all fail to compromise the protection by H3R blockade. H3R blockade inhibits mTOR phosphorylation and reinforces autophagy. The neuroprotection by H3R antagonism is reversed by 3-methyladenine and siRNA for Atg7, and is diminished in Atg5⁻/⁻ mouse embryonic fibroblasts. Furthermore, the peptide Tat-H3R(CT414-436), which blocks CLIC4 binding with H3Rs, or siRNA for CLIC4, further increases I/R-induced autophagy and protects against I/R injury. Therefore, H3R promotes I/R injury while its antagonism protects against ischaemic injury via histamine-independent mechanisms that involve suppressing H3R/CLIC4 binding-activated autophagy, suggesting that H3R inhibition is a therapeutic target for cerebral ischaemia.

  • Histamine promotes osteoclastogenesis through the differential expression of histamine receptors on osteoclasts and osteoblasts. 19264900

    In addition to the numerous roles of histamine in both the immune and nervous systems, previous studies have suggested that this bioamine might also be involved in bone metabolism. Following our observations of impaired bone resorption in ovariectomized rats after histamine receptor antagonist treatment, we focused in this study on osteoclasts and osteoclast precursors. We looked for a direct action of histamine on these cells using both in vivo and in vitro approaches. In vivo, we triggered a remodeling sequence in rat mandibular bone and treated the animals with either histamine or histamine receptor antagonists. Histamine was shown to increase the number of osteoclasts and osteoclast precursors whereas antagonists of histamine receptor-1 and -2 decreased both osteoclast recruitment and resorption. In vitro, spleen cells from histamine-deficient mice were treated with receptor activator for nuclear factor kappa B ligand and macrophage colony stimulating factor, giving rise to both reduced numbers of osteoclasts and decreased resorption on dentin slices. Histamine enhanced resorption in these cultures in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, we identified osteoclast precursors as a source of histamine. In contrast, histamine increased the receptor activator for nuclear factor kappa B ligand/osteoprotegerin ratio in primary osteoblasts that did not secrete histamine. We observed a differential expression of histamine receptor-1 and -2 mRNAs in both primary osteoclasts and osteoblasts, confirming their functional roles with selective antagonists. Thus, histamine acts directly on osteoclasts, osteoclast precursors, and osteoblasts, promoting osteoclastogenesis through autocrine/paracrine mechanisms.

  • Applying surface plasmon resonance to monitor the IgE-mediated activation of human basophils. 18797180

    The histamine releasing test which detects histamine released from basophils in vitro is safe, sensitive and widely used for clinical examination in the field of allergy. However, basophils of certain individuals do not release histamine, because of dysfunctions in their intracellular signal transduction (non-responder). To overcome potential shortcomings of the histamine releasing test, we applied surface plasmon resonance (SPR) to detect the activation of basophils.
