Modulation of in vivo immunoglobulin production by endogenous histamine and H1R and H2R agonists and antagonists

Abstract: Abstract:The present study was designed to delineate the immunomodulatory role of histamine receptors (H1R and H2R) and their antibody generation in a rabbit model. Six groups containing 18 rabbits each received either vehicle (sterile distilled water, 1 ml/kg × b.i. 14, 21, 28 and 58 (post-immunization). Both the ELISA and the HA showed similar production of Igs, IgM and IgG but the results were found comparatively more significant by ELISA as opposed to HA. Results showed that histamine could influence a de… Show more

“…Both Hrh1and Ythdf1 were upregulated in mammary gland of rats exposed to HF in utero compared with controls. As described above, Hrh1 is involved in regulating omega-6 fatty acids release and immune functions [35,43]. Ythdf1 modulates RNA degradation in a N6-methyladenosine (m 6 A) dependent manner [44].…”

“…While, in vivo effects of histamine, pheniramine (H1R-antagonist), histamine trifl uoro-methyl toluidide (H1R-agonist), ranitidine (H2Rantagonist) and amthamine (H2R-agonist) in immunized animals demonstrated impaired hepatic functions (12)(13)(14). These fi ndings, along with our previous studies of HR agonists and antagonists (7)(8)(9)(10) demonstrate that though HR agonists and antagonists are mildly hepatotoxic yet these might be useful for immune targeted diseases. Therefore, we have designed hepatic studies to explore the degree of hepatotoxicity of each histamine receptor's agonist and antagonist that were used in our previous immunotoxic studies.…”

“…Although the physiological and pathological relevance of histamine receptors (HR) and their distribution in various tissues are being documented (2), the exact role of various HR agonists and antagonists on liver functions are still unknown. Our previous studies have shown immunomodulatory and hepatotoxic roles of HR agonists and antagonists (7)(8)(9)(10)(11). While, in vivo effects of histamine, pheniramine (H1R-antagonist), histamine trifl uoro-methyl toluidide (H1R-agonist), ranitidine (H2Rantagonist) and amthamine (H2R-agonist) in immunized animals demonstrated impaired hepatic functions (12)(13)(14).…”

“…Blood samples were kept at room temperature for 2 hr and then at 4 ºC overnight. Blood samples were centrifuged for 10 minutes at 580×g, and serum was isolated and heated at 56 ºC for 30 minutes to inactivate complement proteins and stored in aliquots containing sodium azide as preservative at -20 ºC (4,5,8,10,14,15) till tested further.…”

“…Immunomodulation studies in rabbit model have showed that histamine has a short-term effect on antibody generation and the antibody (Immunoglobulins (Ig), immunoglobulin-M (IgM), and IgG) production in vivo were affected by the concentration of histamine (4,5). Histamine receptors (H1R and H2R) have been shown to enhance delayed hypersensitivity and antibody mediated immune responses in many pathological processes regulating several essential events in allergies and autoimmune diseases in experimental animals, especially in knock out mice (either H1R-or H2R-defi cient) (6)(7)(8). Histamine and HRs (H1R and H2R)-agonist enhances antibody production by triggering the histamine receptors (H1R and H2R), whereas both H1R-antagonist and H2R-antagonist positively or negatively regulate the antibody profi le.…”
