Histamine ameliorates anti-glomerular basement membrane antibody-induced glomerulonephritis in rats

Abstract: Anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM)-induced glomerulonephritis involves T-helper type 1 (Th1) responses leading to rapid crescent formation. As many inflammatory and immune responses in general are affected by histamine, we examined the effects of histaminergic ligands on immune renal injury in the rat. Female Wistar-Kyoto rats were injected intraperitoneally with an antibody against the GBMs. Histaminergic ligands were then injected twice daily for 5 days after which renal function was assessed by pr… Show more

“…The histaminergic receptors in the hypothalamus appear to be an important mediator of feeding behavior and body weight regulation [20], which may further regulate obesity and dyslipidemia [21,22]. The high binding affinity of SGAs to H1R and its modulating role in the hypothalamic AMPK pathway have been evidenced as one key mechanism for a marked increase in food-intake/weight gain [21][22][23][24].…”
