The histamine H4 receptor is, like the other three histamine receptors, a member of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily.[1][2][3]
Contents
Tissue distribution
H4 is highly expressed in bone marrow and white blood cells and regulates neutrophil release from bone marrow and subsequent infiltration in the zymosan-induced pleurisy mouse model.[4] It is also expressed in the colon, liver, lung, small intestine, spleen, testes, thymus, tonsils, and trachea.[5]
Function
They have been shown to mediate mast cell chemotaxis.[6] It seems to do this by the mechanism of Gi-coupled decrease in cAMP.[7]
Ligands
Agonists
- 4-Methylhistamine
- VUF-8430 (2-[(Aminoiminomethyl)amino]ethyl carbamimidothioic acid ester)
Antagonists
- Thioperamide
- JNJ 7777120
- VUF-6002 (1-[(5-Chloro-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)carbonyl]-4-methylpiperazine)
Therapeutic potential
By inhibiting the H4 receptor, asthma and allergy may be treated.[7]
The highly selective histamine H4 antagonist VUF-6002 is orally active and inhibits the activity of both mast cells and eosinophils in vivo,[8]and has antiinflammatory and antihyperalgesic effects.[9]
