Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryHistamine is a ubiquitous messenger molecule released from mast cells, enterochromaffin-like cells, and neurons. Its various actions are mediated by histamine receptors H1, H2, H3 and H4. Histamine receptor H4 belongs to the family 1 of G protein-coupled receptors and has the highest homology to histamine receptor H3 among known G protein-coupled receptors.

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: Q9H3N8 # The H4 subclass of histamine receptors could mediate the histamine signals in peripheral tissues. Displays a significant level of constitutive activity (spontaneous activity in the absence of agonist).
SIZE: 390 amino acids; 44496 Da
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed primarily in the bone marrow and eosinophils. Shows preferential distribution in cells of immunological relevance such as T-cells, dendritic cells, monocytes, mast cells, neutrophils. Also expressed in a wide variety of peripheral tissues, including the heart, kidney, liver, lung, pancreas, skeletal muscle, prostate, small intestine, spleen, fetal liver and lymph node.
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: Q9H3N8 ## Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
MISCELLANEOUS: Does not bind diphenhydramine, loratadine, ranitidine, cimetidine and chlorpheniramine. Shows modest affinity for dimaprit, impromidine, clobenpropit, thioperamide, burimamide clozapine, immepip and imetit. The order of inhibitory activity was imetit > clobenpropit > burimamide > thioperamide. Clobenpropit behaves as a partial agonist, dimaprit and impromidine show some agonist activity while clozapine behaves as a full agonist. Thioperamide shows inverse agonism (enhances cAMP activity). The order of inhibitory activity of histamine derivatives was Histamine > N-alpha-methylhistamine > R(-)-alpha- methylhistamine > S(+)-alpha-methylhistamine. Both N-alpha- methylhistamine > R(-)-alpha-methylhistamine behave as full agonists.
