Abstract
- As a prerequisite for serotonin secretion, the P-STS ileal enterochromaffin cell line responds to acetylcholine (ACh) stimulation with an increase in intracellular calcium mediated by the muscarinic ACh receptor M3 (M3R). Histamine increases intracellular calcium via histamine H1 receptor (H1R) in P-STS cells and pre-incubation with histamine specifically augments the response to ACh but not to epinephrine or nicotine. We aimed to elucidate whether histamine receptors are involved in this synergism. Astonishingly, HEK-293 T cells-known to express M3R, but only a very low amount of histamine receptor messenger RNA-showed a similar enhancement of the calcium response to ACh by pre-incubation with histamine. Despite the much lower level of H1R protein detected in HEK-293 T cells as compared to P-STS cells, in both cell lines pre-treatment with H1R antagonists inhibited the synergism between histamine and ACh. No indication for an involvement of histamine H2 or H4 receptors in the synergism was found. Furthermore, pre-incubation with the cAMP-inducing compound forskolin had no influence on the intracellular calcium response to ACh. Serotonin secretion from P-STS cells was increased after challenge with ACh and histamine added simultaneously compared to ACh alone, suggesting that histamine increases ACh-induced serotonin secretion from enterochromaffin cells. In conclusion, our data suggest that histamine enhances the M3R-mediated intracellular calcium response to ACh via activation of H1R. This probably increases serotonin secretion from enterochromaffin cells and thereby affects intestinal motility in histamine intolerance, food allergies and irritable bowel syndrome.<br /> (© 2022 The Authors.
