The potential role of histamine in cancer immunotherapy has been a subject of interest for more than a decade. A significant body of research has elucidated the action of histamine in a model system that mimics the tumour microenvironment. In vitro evidence indicates that histamine inhibits the generation and release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by monocytes/macrophages (MO) during respiratory burst. Since ROS have been shown to abrogate peritumoural and intratumoural cytokine activation of natural killer (NK) and T-cells and induce apoptosis of these cells in vitro, inhibition of ROS may enable cytokines to activate NK and T-cells and restore their antineoplastic, cytotoxic capabilities. Experimental data indicate that histamine and interleukin-2 (IL-2) act synergistically to activate NK cell cytotoxicity (NKCC). Although IL-2, a regulator of immune responses, has been shown to promote NKCC in monotherapy for metastatic melanoma (MM), renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), objective responses occur in a minority of patients and survival is not significantly extended, except for a minority of patients with MM using high-dose regimens which have not been widely adopted. In vitro findings suggest that the addition of histamine to IL-2 therapy might improve response rates and disease-free survival by protecting the cells of the immune system from oxidative stress and inducing natural endogenous immune cytotoxicity. An IL-2/histamine Phase III trial is in progress in a population of AML patients. A recently completed Phase III trial of IL-2 vs. IL-2/histamine in patients with MM demonstrated a trend towards a superior survival benefit from IL-2/histamine for all patients entered, and a statistically significant survival benefit for patients with hepatic metastases[2].

Additional Infomation |
Histamine Dihydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt form of histamine, with potential immunomodulatory and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, histamine targets, binds to and activates histamine receptors. Depending on the amount of histamine administered and the type of receptor that is activated, histamine may exert a wide variety of activities. These can range from pro-tumorigenic to anti-tumor effects and may modulate the immune system to exert anti-tumor immune effects or may contribute to an inflammatory response.
An amine derived by enzymatic decarboxylation of HISTIDINE. It is a powerful stimulant of gastric secretion, a constrictor of bronchial smooth muscle, a vasodilator, and also a centrally acting neurotransmitter. Histamine Agonists: Drugs that bind to and activate histamine receptors. Although they have been suggested for a variety of clinical applications histamine agonists have so far been more widely used in research than therapeutically. The effect of intracerebroventricular administration of histamine on the activity of mesolimbic and nigrostriatal dopaminergic (DA) neurons was determined in male rats. The activity of these neurons was estimated by measuring: (1) the accumulation of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) after administration of a decarboxylase inhibitor, and (2) the concentration of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) in the nucleus accumbens and striatum, which contain the terminals of these neurons. Central administration of histamine increased both DOPA accumulation and DOPAC concentrations in the nucleus accumbens, but was without effect in the striatum. The increase in DOPAC concentrations in the nucleus accumbens occurred within 10 min and was sustained for at least 120 min. The H1 antagonist mepyramine blocked whereas the H2 antagonist zolantidine did not affect histamine-induced increases in DOPAC concentrations in the nucleus accumbens. Neither mepyramine nor zolantidine affected basal DOPAC concentrations in the nucleus accumbens. These results indicate that central administration of histamine stimulates mesolimbic DA neurons through an action at the H1 receptor, but has no effect upon the activity of nigrostriatal DA neurons.[3] |

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (13.58 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (13.58 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
