epigallocatechin-3-gallate
-
direct inhibitory effect on both histidine decarboxylase and DOPA decarboxylase. Modeling of binding to the enzymes. The presence of epigallocatechin-3-gallate contiguous to the active site entrance leads to the movement of several residues in the active site. Epigallocatechin-3-gallate occludes the entrance channel to the enzyme active site and establishes new interactions with residues in the active site. These residues turn outward when the active site collapses. After docking of epigallocatechin-3-gallate, neither histidine nor the inhibitors histidine methyl ester and alpha-fluoromethyl histidine are able to bind to the enzyme

the posterodorsal medial amygdala has high levels of histidine decarboxylase
-
HDC expression is significantly increased in carcinoma cells
-
in the acute phase of infection of mice infected with Leishmania major, detected in both strains the resistant C57BL/6 and the susceptible BALB/c. Only susceptible mice known to be unable to control parasite dissemination show induction of histidine decarboxylase in their distant periaortic lymph nodes as well. During the chronic phase of infection only the heavily parasitized organs of BALB/c mice show high expression of histidine decarboxylase gene
-
histidine decarboxylase is induced upon infiltration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes into mouse peritoneal cavity. Histamine is synthesized by the enzyme attached to the granule membrane of polymorphonuclear leukocytes
-
of osteoarthritic cartilage. Histidine decarboxylase is localized within chondrocytes of the superficial layer of nearly all the osteoarthritis specimen examined, with little or no immunostaining in the intermediate or deep zones. Production of histamine and histidine decarboxylase in specimen of osteoarthritic cartilage respresents three grades of clinical severity
-
high levels of HDC protein are also found in the striatum
-
hypertrophic and hyperplastic, Increase in histidine decarboxylase activity in regenerative growth of renal epithelium can result from activation of translation or increased half-life, i.e. slower degradation of the enzyme protein, or both
pregnancy associated elevation of histidine decarboxylase activity is successfully affected by enzyme antisense oligonucleotide treatment, inducing short-term histamine deficiency
-
neoplastic mast cells in patients with systemic mastocytosis, including MC leukemia and MC sarcoma, expression in mast cells of different maturation stage, immunohistochemic detection and quantitative expression analysis
-
during the chronic phase of infection elevated levels of histidine decarboxylase, possibly of mast cell origin, are associated with Th2-dominated responses and serious disease development
