Effect of H1-antagonist Dithiaden® on human PMN-leukocyte aggregation and chemiluminescence is stimulus-dependent

Abstract: Dithiaden, depending on the stimuli applied, inhibited human neutrophils, both isolated or in whole blood, more markedly than histamine. The inhibition of aggregation and CL was dose- and stimulus-dependent. Histamine administered simultaneously abolished the effect of Dithiaden on fMLP-stimulated PMN-leukocytes. It seems likely that the interaction of Dithiaden with neutrophils operated both at an extra- and intracellular level.

“…A large proportion of publications on CL are related to cellular CL [110114]. The scope of cellular CL studies is large and includes investigations of reactive oxygen species produced by human spermatozoa [115], defects in the production of reactive oxygen intermediates [116], responses of cells (e.g., PMN-leukocytes, neutrophils) to drugs [117] and different agents, such as H1-antagonists [118], Fc gamma and complement receptors [119], polyunsaturated fatty acids [120], lectins [121], lysophosphatidic acid [122], Helicobacter pylori lipopolysaccharide [123], and endotoxins [124]. A noninvasive luminol bioluminescence imaging method was developed to distinguish chronic and acute inflammation in animal models.…”

“…Inhibition of platelet functions might consist of several types of drug-cell interactions, depend on the structure and physico-chemical properties of the drugs and cannot be estimated simply on the basis of partition coefficients [139]. Dose-dependent inhibition of aggregation due to DIT and BRO was followed by the inhibition of AA liberation from membrane phospholipids of platelets stimulated either at the receptor site (thrombin) or by a stimulus bypassing membrane receptors (Ca 2+ ionophore A23187) [140].…”

“…In stimulated platelets BRO, first, inhibits the AA pathway, second, acts inside the platelets since the stimulatory effect of A23187 does not depend on surface receptors and third, attacks process(es) involved in the action of both thrombin and A23187. Antihistaminic drugs interfere with stimulated aggregation by inhibiting PLA 2 rather than the intraplatelet Hi [133,[138][139][140].…”

“…This function is performed by leukocytes, mainly neutrophils. As observed [1,2], the histamine H 1 -antagonist dithiaden inhibits production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by phagocytes. Our aim was to compare the inhibitory effects of dithiaden with those of four second-generation H 1 -antihistamines -loratadine, acrivastine, astemizole and ketotifen-fumarate.…”
