Histamine is a critical mediator of IgE/mast cell-mediated anaphylaxis, a neurotransmitter and a regulator of gastric acid secretion. Histamine is a monoamine synthesized from the amino acid histidine through a reaction catalyzed by the enzyme histidine decarboxylase (HDC), which removes carboxyl group from histidine. Despite the importance of histamine, transcriptional regulation of HDC gene expression in mammals is still poorly understood. In this review, we focus on discussing advances in…

Recent advances in the application of microbial diamine oxidases and other histamine-oxidizing enzymes

This review deals with the advances and challenges of DAOs and other histamine-oxidizing enzymes for their potential application as processing aids for the production of Histamine-reduced foods or as orally administered adjuvants to humans who have been eating food fraught with histamine.

The Hdc GC box is critical for Hdc gene transcription and histamine-mediated anaphylaxis

The results demonstrate that the HDC GC box within the proximal enhancer of the mouse and human HDC gene is essential for Hdc gene transcription, histamine synthesis, and histamine-mediated anaphylaxis in vitro and in vivo.

The implications of histamine metabolism and signaling in renal function

An overview of the current knowledge regarding the role of histamine and its metabolism in the kidney is provided to enable new approaches for the treatment of kidney diseases associated with inflammation.

Anti-Allergic Potential of Cinnamaldehyde via the Inhibitory Effect of Histidine Decarboxylase (HDC) Producing Klebsiella pneumonia

It is confirmed that CA has the potential to attenuate mast cell activation by inhibiting HDC and modifying the process of allergic disorders.

The Histaminergic System in Neuropsychiatric Disorders

This review comprehensively summarize recent experimental and clinical findings on the precise role of histaminergic system in neuropsychiatric disorders, including cell-type role and its circuit bases in narcolepsy, schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease, Tourette's syndrome and Parkinson’s disease.

Histamine acts via H4-receptor stimulation to cause augmented inflammation when lipopolysaccharide is co-administered with a nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate

In MC-deficient mice, unexpectedly, Ale’+ LPS induced prolonged ear-swelling that was augmented and more persistent than in normal mice, which may be anti-inflammatory via IL-10 production.

Histamine accumulation in dairy products: Microbial causes, techniques for the detection of histamine-producing microbiota, and potential solutions.

This review aims to explore control measures to prevent the access of histamine-producing microbiota to raw materials, as well as the formation of Histamine in dairy products, such as a careful selection of starter cultures lacking the ability to produce histamine, or the implementation of effective food processing technologies to reduce histamine -producing microbiota.

Lipopolysaccharide-induced expansion of histidine decarboxylase-expressing Ly6G+ myeloid cells identified by exploiting histidine decarboxylase BAC-GFP transgenic mice

The accumulation of a histamine-producing myeloid cell population during sepsis is revealed, which likely participates in the immune process of sepsi and could represent the localization of histamines-producing cells under various pathophysiological conditions.

Inhibitory effect of quercetin on tryptase and interleukin-6 release, and histidine decarboxylase mRNA transcription by human mast cell-1 cell line

It is shown that quercetin, a natural compound able to act as an inhibitor of mast cell secretion, causes a decrease in the release of tryptase and IL-6 and the down-regulation of histidine decarboxylase (HDC) mRNA from human mast cell (HMC)-1 cells.
