Molecular modeling and site-specific mutagenesis of the histamine-binding site of the histamine H4 receptor.
The histamine H4 receptor is a novel G-protein-coupled receptor with a unique pharmacological profile. The distribution of H4 mRNA suggests that it may play a role in the regulation of immune function, particularly with respect to allergy and asthma. To define the histamine-binding site of this receptor, molecular modeling and site-directed mutagenesis were used to predict and alter amino acids...
متن کاملMolecular cloning of the human histamine H2 receptor.
We utilized the technique of polymerase chain reaction with oligonucleotide primers based upon the nucleotide sequence of the canine H2 histamine receptor gene which we recently isolated to clone its human homologue. Transfection of a construct of this gene in Colo-320 DM cells led to the expression of a receptor that bound to [methyl-3H] tiotidine and was linked to 3',5'cyclic adenosine monoph...
متن کاملCloning and characterization of dominant negative splice variants of the human histamine H4 receptor.
The H(4)R (histamine H(4) receptor) is the latest identified member of the histamine receptor subfamily of GPCRs (G-protein-coupled receptors) with potential functional implications in inflammatory diseases and cancer. The H(4)R is primarily expressed in eosinophils and mast cells and has the highest homology with the H(3)R. The occurrence of at least twenty different hH(3)R (human H(3)R) isofo...
متن کاملAzines as histamine H4 receptor antagonists.
Since 2000, when the histamine H4 receptor (H4R) was cloned, it has constituted an interesting target for drug development. Pharmacological studies suggest the potential utility of histamine H4R antagonists/inverse agonists in the treatment of inflammatory diseases, e.g. allergic rhinitis, asthma, atopic dermatitis, colitis, or pruritus. The first H4R ligands were non-selective compounds, but i...
متن کاملInteractions of histamine H1-receptor agonists and antagonists with the human histamine H4-receptor.
The human histamine H(4)-receptor (hH(4)R) possesses high constitutive activity and, like the human H(1)-receptor (hH(1)R), is involved in the pathogenesis of type-I allergic reactions. The study aims were to explore the value of dual H(1)/H(4)R antagonists as antiallergy drugs and to address the question of whether H(1)R ligands bind to hH(4)R. In an acute murine asthma model, the H(1)R antago...
