General annotation (Comments)

Function

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). Ref.7

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, testis, colon, fetal liver and lymph node. Ref.7

Induction

Expression is either up-regulated or down-regulated upon activation of the lymphoid tissues and this regulation may depend on the presence of IL10/interleukin-10 or IL13/interleukin-13.

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.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
