Mammalian histidine decarboxylase: from structure to function.
Histamine is a multifunctional biogenic amine with relevant roles in intercellular communication, inflammatory processes and highly prevalent pathologies. Histamine biosynthesis depends on a single decarboxylation step, carried out by a PLP-dependent histidine decarboxylase activity (EC 4.1.1.22), an enzyme that still remains to be fully characterized. Nevertheless, during the last few years, i...
متن کاملEffects of Histidine and Dexamethasone on the Local Inflammation Induced by Histamine in Rats
In this study, the effects of separate and combined intraperitoneal (IP) injections of histidine and dexamethasone were investigated on local inflammation in rats. Local inflammation was induced by subcutaneous (SC) injection of histamine (100 μl, 0.1%) in ventral surface of right hind paw. The thickness of paw was measured at 30 min before and 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 min after injection o...
متن کاملHistidine decarboxylase expression and histamine metabolism in gastric oxyntic mucosa during hypergastrinemia and carcinoid tumor formation.
Histamine is an important stimulator of gastric acid secretion. In experimental animals, inhibition of acid secretion by long term histamine2 receptor blockade causes hypergastrinemia, proliferation of enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells, and formation of histamine-producing gastric carcinoids. The aim of this study was to examine the role of gastrin in histamine synthesis and metabolism of the o...
متن کاملCrucial role of histamine for regulation of gastric acid secretion ascertained by histidine decarboxylase-knockout mice.
Histidine decarboxylase (HDC) represents the sole enzyme that produces histamine in the body. The present work investigated the role of endogenous histamine in carbachol- and gastrin-induced gastric acid secretion with HDC-knockout (HDC-/-) mice. Acid secretion was measured in either mice subjected to acute fistula production under urethane anesthesia or conscious mice that had previously under...
متن کاملEnhanced histamine production through the induction of histidine decarboxylase expression by phorbol ester in Jurkat cells
Histamine (HA), a mediator of inflammation, type I allergic responses and neurotransmission, is synthesized from L-histidine, the reaction of which is catalyzed by histidine decarboxylase (HDC). HDC has been reported to be induced by various stimuli, not only in mast cells and basophils, but also in T lymphocytes and macrophages. Although its mRNA...
