Test 2: lecture 22 autocoids 1 Flashcards
what are two amine derived autacoids
histamine
5-Hydroxytryptamine, aka Serotonin
what are two peptide derived autacoids
angiotensin
bradykinin
histamine is a major mediator for —
inflammation
anaphylaxis
gastric acid
arousal (awake)
where can you find histamine in the body
Major storage in specialized vesicles (granules):
* Mast cells (skin, bronchial and intestinal mucosa)
* Basophil granulocytes (blood)
* Enterochromaffin-like cells (stomach mucosa)
how to make histamine
histidine (L-histidine decarboxylase)→ histamine
— are antagonists of H1 receptor
pyrilamine
Benadryl (diphenhydramine)
Chlorphen… (Diathal)
Claratin, Zyrtec
histamine receptor found in smooth muscle, endothelial cells and CNS
— is a antagonist of H2 receptors
ranitidine (zantac)
cimetidine (tagamet)
will cause decreased gastric acid production
Histamine receptor found in gastric parietal cells, cardiac muscle, mast cells and CNS
— is an agonist of H1 receptor
2-methyl-histamine
histamine receptor found in smooth muscle, endothelial cells and CNS
— cells in the stomach mucosa can release histamine
Enterochromaffin-like cells
histamine can be released in response to —
- Tissue injury/trauma
- Physical agents: heat, cold, (heart burn from cold water), x-rays, etc.
- Chemical compounds: (e.g. morphine, tubocurarine
- Immunological: IgE → allergy and resistance to parasites).
histamine released from mast cells will cause what clinical signs
small red spots- local dilation of blood vessels
large red flare
wheal
histamine will — post capillary venules. Will — permeability of endothelium. mediates attraction of — cells and irriates nerve endings
dilate
increase- allows for edema/swelling
inflammatory cells ( neutrophils, eosinophils, basophiles, monocytes,
lymphocytes)
cause pain/itching
what antibody does histamine cause allergic reaction
IgE
what kind of allergic diseases does mast cells play a role in
asthma, eczema, allergic rhinitis, flea allergy dermatitis
anaphylaxis is a large release of histamine which causes
systemic vasodilation → shock
