Background/Aims: Previous studies have stated that maternal allergic diseases are associated with increased risk of preterm labor/delivery, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study tested the hypothesis that histamine induces interleukin (IL)-6 production in amnion cells. Methods: Using cultured human amnion cells, we examined expression of histamine receptors and effects of histamine on IL-6 production. Results: Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting revealed expression of histamine H1 receptor (H1R) and H2 receptor (H2R) in human amnion. Histamine stimulation significantly increased concentrations of IL-6 in conditioned medium, as did tumor necrosis factor-α and IL-1β in positive controls. In addition, the H1R antagonist olopatadine significantly blocked histamine-induced production of IL-6, whereas the H2R antagonist ranitidine did not. Conclusion: Histamine appears to induce IL-6 production through H1R in human amnion cells.

“…Therefore, in the present study we investigated the expression of H 1 R in the human placenta tissue to localize H 1 R expression and identify H 1 R-containing cells by immunohistochemical study using an antibody against human H 1 R. Some of these results have appeared in preliminary form (18). …”

Abstract. The previous Northern blot analysis and in situ hybridization studies showed that histamine H 1 -receptor (H 1 R) mRNA is expressed in human placenta and suggested that H 1 R plays some roles in the function of placenta in pregnancy. To investigate further, it is essential to show the precise location of H 1 R in the placenta. In the present study, we investigated H 1 R expression in human placenta by radioligand binding assay and immunohistochemical study using an antibody against human H 1 R. Placentas were obtained from normal uncomplicated deliveries. Membranes prepared from the tissue exhibited saturable [
