Characterization of histamine H1-receptor on rat hepatocytes.
The binding sites for [3H]pyrilamine in isolated rat hepatocytes were characterized. Scatchard analysis revealed two kinds of binding sites in hepatocytes, a high-affinity site and a low-affinity one. The rates of binding of the radioligand with the high-affinity binding site and its dissociation were rapid. The specificity of the sites for various histamine antagonists indicated that the high-affinity [3H]pyrilamine binding site is representative of the histamine H1 receptor. Treatment of hepatocytes with protease or phospholipase A2 significantly decreased the maximum binding capacity of the high-affinity site without affecting its dissociation constant, suggesting that the binding site is proteinaceous and is sensitive to a change in the lipid moiety of the membrane. Hepatocytic cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP were not significantly modulated by incubating hepatocytes with histamine. Thus, the action of histamine on hepatocytes might not be mediated by the cyclic nucleotides.
