1 Histamine, an important inflammatory mediator in allergic diseases and asthma, was reported to have modulatory effects on T cells by down-regulating Th1-type cell cytokines like interleukin 2 (IL-2) and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). Histamine interferon gamma Homo sapiens

3 In this study we examined the effect of histamine and the histamine-receptor antagonists cimetidine and diphenhydramine on the production of neopterin after stimulation with IFN-gamma in the myelomonocytoma cell line THP-1. Histamine interferon gamma Homo sapiens
4 Increasing concentrations of histamine markedly suppressed IFN-gamma induced neopterin formation. Histamine interferon gamma Homo sapiens
