Popis: | Anaphylactic histamine release from isolated rat peritoneal mast cells was concentration-dependently blocked by a 5-min treatment with exogenous histamine at 0.9 and 9 microM and enhanced by a 20- to 30-min treatment with thioperamide (H3-antagonist) at 3 microM with significance, but little affected by mepyramine (H1-antagonist) and cimetidine (H2-antagonist) at the cell concentration of 10(6) mast cells/ml. At a low concentration of mast cells (10(4) mast cells/ml), (R)-alpha-methylhistamine (alpha-MH), an H3-agonist, at 0.9-90 microM also inhibited the release in a concentration-dependent fashion. Thioperamide, but neither mepyramine nor cimetidine, significantly restored the decreased release by alpha-MH. However, the complete restoration by thioperamide could not be achieved because the drug itself slightly but concentration-dependently inhibited anaphylactic histamine release. On the other hand, not only betahistine and dimaprit but also alpha-MH did not suppress histamine release from the mast cells induced by compound 48/80. In rat plasma, considerable levels of histamine were detected. From these results, it is strongly suggested that histamine H3-like receptors are largely responsible for the negative feedback regulation of the anaphylactic histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells. |
