Lack of histamine involvement in parathyroid hormone hypotensive action. 1981

M C Yang, and T E Tenner, and P K Pang

Promethazine and cimetidine blocked the hypotensive actions of 2-pyridylethylamine, and H1 agonist and dimaprit, an H2 agonist, respectively, but not that of bovine parathyroid hormone fragment [bPTH-(1-34)]. Rats were treated repeatedly with the histamine releaser, compound 48/80, until the release could no longer produce a decrease in blood pressure. The hypotensive action of bPTH-(1-34) could still be seen. Rats with histamine partially depleted with one injection of compound 48/80 were injected with cimetidine and pyrilamine, and H1 antagonist, which together blocked the hypotensive action of subsequent injections of compound 48/80, but not that of bPTH-(1-34). These data suggest that the vasodilatory action of bPTH-(1-34) does not involve the release or action of histamine.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007022 Hypotension Abnormally low BLOOD PRESSURE that can result in inadequate blood flow to the brain and other vital organs. Common symptom is DIZZINESS but greater negative impacts on the body occur when there is prolonged depravation of oxygen and nutrients. Blood Pressure, Low,Hypotension, Vascular,Low Blood Pressure,Vascular Hypotension
D008297 Male Males
D010281 Parathyroid Hormone A polypeptide hormone (84 amino acid residues) secreted by the PARATHYROID GLANDS which performs the essential role of maintaining intracellular CALCIUM levels in the body. Parathyroid hormone increases intracellular calcium by promoting the release of CALCIUM from BONE, increases the intestinal absorption of calcium, increases the renal tubular reabsorption of calcium, and increases the renal excretion of phosphates.
