Activation of the histaminergic system is characteristic of response to the action of adverse or potentially dangerous stimuli that disturb circulatory homeostasis, such as dehydration and changes in blood pressure. Previous study demonstrates that inhibition of histamine N-methyltransferase, which
Carnosine, an endogenous dipeptide (β-alanyl-L-histidine), exerts multiple neuroprotective properties, but its role in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) remains unclear. This study investigates the effect of Carnosine on brain injury using the rat ICH model, which is established by type IV collagenase
An increase in endogenous central histamine concentrations, after loading with histamine precursor L-histidine or inhibition of histamine N-methyltransferase (HNMT) activity, produces the reversal of critical hypotension with improvement in survival of haemorrhage-shocked rats. In the present study,
BACKGROUND
Free radical generation following hemolysis of a subarachnoid blood clot is believed to be a key component in the development of cerebral vasospasm. Histidine, an essential amino acid with free radical scavenging characteristics, was examined for its effects on cerebral
Carnosine (β-alanyl-L-histidine) has been demonstrated to provide antioxidative and anti-apoptotic roles in the animal of ischemic brain injuries and neurodegenerative diseases. The aim of this study was to examine whether carnosine prevents subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH)-induced early brain injury
When blood plasma proteins are depleted by bleeding with return of red cells suspended in saline (plasmapheresis) it is possible to bring dogs to a steady state of hypoproteinemia and a constant level of plasma protein production if the diet nitrogen intake is controlled and limited. Such dogs are
Rheumatoid arthritis is characterized by chronic polyarthritis and destruction of multiple joints. In this study, poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate-N-methacryloyl-(L-histidine)-methylester) (PHEMAH) beads were used in the removal of pathogenic antibodies from rheumatoid arthritis patient plasma in a
