Histamine H1- and H2-receptors in coronary arteries of pigs

Abstract: Histamine exerts its action in smooth muscle via in two types of receptors. In coronary arteries of pigs both types of receptors are also involved in responses to histamine. Histamine initiates by an interaction with H1-receptors a contraction and with H2-receptors a relaxation. The histamine-induced contraction is reduced by the competitively antagonistic action of mepyramine. Metiamide potentiates dose-dependently the histamine-caused contraction in the absence and presence of mepyramine. The proportion of H… Show more

“…2, the isolated pig and cattle coronary arteries were contracted by histamine. These results were similar to previous reports in pigs (12,13) and cattle (3,14). In pig coronary arteries, removal of the endothelium increased the maximal response and pD2 value of the histamine-induced contraction ( Fig.…”

“…7). These results are similar to those of Hagen and Paegelow (13). They have mentioned that histamine in pig coronary arteries exerts opposite actions, an H1-receptor-mediated contraction and an H2-receptor-mediated relaxation.…”

“…Over the past few years, influences of histamine on cat and rat gastric (Guth & Smith, 1978a;Harvey, Owen & Shaw, 1980), rat, rabbit, cat and dog mesenteric (Flynn & Owen, 1975;Angus & Korner, 1977;Pawlik, Tague, Tepperman, Millar & Jacobson, 1977;Guth & Smith, 1978b), rabbit and pig coronary (Coruzzi, Bongrani & Bertaccini, 1979;Hagen & Paegelow, 1980), rabbit renal (Angus & Korner, 1977), rabbit ear (Ercan & Turker, 1975), cat and dog cerebral vasculatures (Edvinsson & Owman, 1975;Toda, 1977;Wahl & Kuschinsky, 1979) and cat and dog blood pressure (Black, Owen & Parsons, 1975) have been described. Some of these authors have postulated from the results of experiments in situ that both H1-and H2-receptors participate in a common response, such as a vasodilatation, an increase in the blood flow and a fall of the blood pressure (Black et al, 1975;Flynn & Owen, 1975;Angus & Korner, 1977;Pawlik etal., 1977;Guth & Smith, 1978a, b;Harvey et al, 1980).…”

“…In the absence of endothelium, 5HT, 14,15,20) His 21) and ACh 22) caused a concentration-dependent contraction of artery preparations including porcine coronary artery. To study the effects of H 2 O 2 and X/XO, we used concentrations of these agonists produced were similar magnitude of high K-induced contraction.…”
