Most of this knowledge has been obtained from animal studies. In contrast, in humans, expression and distribution of histamine receptors (HR) within the human gastrointestinal tract are unclear. Methods: We analysed HR expression in human gastrointestinal tissue specimens by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and immunostaining. Results: We found that H1R, H2R, and H4R mRNA were expressed throughout the gastrointestinal tract, while H3R mRNA was absent. No significant differences in the distribution of HR were found between different anatomical sites (duodenum, ileum, colon, sigma, and rectum). Immunostaining of neurones and nerve fibres revealed that H3R was absent in the human enteric nervous system; however, H1R and H2R were found on ganglion cells of the myenteric plexus. Epithelial cells also expressed H1R, H2R and, to some extent, H4R. Intestinal fibroblasts exclusively expressed H1R while the muscular layers of human intestine stained positive for both H1R and H2R. Immune cells expressed mRNA and protein for H1R, H2R, and low levels of H4R. Analysis of endoscopic biopsies from patients with food allergy and irritable bowel syndrome revealed significantly elevated H1R and H2R mRNA levels compared with controls. Conclusions: We have demonstrated that H1R, H2R and, to some extent, H4R, are expressed in the human gastrointestinal tract, while H3R is absent, and we found that HR expression was altered in patients with gastrointestinal diseases.展开更多
Let B be a Banach space in UMD with an unconditional basis. The boundedness of the θ (t)_type singular integral operators in L p B(R n),(1≤p<+∞) and H 1 B(R n) spaces are discussed.

文摘抗精神病药物所致肥胖是长期困扰临床医师和患者的一大难题。本项目研究奥氮平"多靶点"导致肥胖的共同通路。用蛋白质免疫印迹法在奥氮平肥胖大鼠模型中检测急性及短期奥氮平给药对下丘脑内侧基底部(Medial basal hypothalamus,MBH),室旁核和迷走神经复合体(Dorsal vagal complex of brainstem,DVC)内组胺H1受体(H1 receptor,H1R)-腺苷酸活化蛋白激酶(AMP-activated protein kinase,AMPK)通路的调控规律,分析其与肥胖的关系。单次奥氮平给药未增加动物摄食,但显著激活MBH及DVC内H1R-AMPK信号通路,奥氮平给药3d增加动物摄食及体重,同时激活H1R-AMPK信号通路。AMPK磷酸化与动物体重呈显著正相关。奥氮平多靶点激活H1R-AMPK信号通路,该通路激活早于肥胖的发生,是动物肥胖的关键原因,多靶点抑制该通路对治疗奥氮平所致肥胖有重要意义。
