    Notes: Abstract The effects of histamine upon secretin- or cholecystokinin (CCK)-evoked exocrine pancreatic secretion were investigated in the anaesthetised guinea pig. Histamine (0.1 µmol/kg/min) induced a slight increase in pancreatic juice flow and total protein release compared to saline controls. Secretin (0.5 pmol/kg/min) and CCK-8 (0.75 pmol/kg/min) evoked marked time course increases in both the rate of pancreatic juice flow and total protein output in the anaesthetised guinea pig. Administration of either secretin or CCK-8 simultaneously with histamine elevated the exocrine pancreatic secretion compared to the smaller response obtained when administered separately. These results indicate that histamine may play an important physiological role in modulating the hormonal control of exocrine guinea pig pancreas.

    Notes: Abstract We have investigated the effects of histamine on motility of the gallbladder and characterized the receptor types involved. Histamine and the histamine H1-receptor agonist, 2-thiazolylethylamine (2-TEA) contracted the isolated guinea-pig gallbladder strip in a dose dependent manner. The contractile response to histamine was shifted to the right by the H1-receptor antagonist, mepyramine. In pre-contracted gallbladder strips, the H2-receptor agonist dimaprit reduced the tension generated in a dose dependent fashion. The histamine H2-receptor antagonist, ranitidine shifted the histamine concentration effect curve to the left and attenuated the dose dependent relaxations elicited at high concentrations. The histamine H3-receptor agonist, (R)-α-methylhistamine (RMHA) elicited dose dependent contraction of the tissue which was significantly inhibited in the presence of mepyramine. The effects of electrical field stimulation (EFS) on the strips were not significantly altered by the presence of RMHA (10−10−10−7 M) indicating little pre-synaptic H3 activity in this tissue. Histamine immunoreactivity (IR) was detected in gallbladder whole mount preparations of the mucosa and the muscularis/serosa. The histamine IR appeared cell bound in cells of varying morphological characteristics but no IR was detected in nerve fibres or cell bodies (ganglia). Alcian blue staining was consistent with the distribution of histamine IR cells as mast cells. The results indicate that histamine is distributed in the guinea-pig gallbladder and it can regulate contractile activity via activation of H1 and H2 but not H3 receptors.

    Notes: Abstract Within the last decade, a great deal of attention has been devoted to the role of chitinases and β-1,3-glucanases in plant/microbe interactions. While there is strong evidence that these hydrolases are antifungal proteins, there are also recent indications of roles in both plant morphogenesis and plant/microbe signal perception. This paper reviews recent findings pertinent to root/microbe interactions, and discusses the nature and significance of specific hydrolase isoforms in symbioses with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi.
