1 | This study was carried out to assess how dexmedetomidine modulates histamine-induced Ca(2+) signaling and regulates the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine genes encoding interleukin (IL)-6 and -8. | Histamine | interleukin 6 | Homo sapiens |
2 | Histamine stimulated IL-6 mRNA expression not IL-8 mRNA within 2 hrs, however this effect was attenuated by dexmedetomidine. | Histamine | interleukin 6 | Homo sapiens |
3 | Collectively, these findings suggest that dexmedetomidine modulates histamine-induced Ca(2+) signaling and IL-6 expression and will be useful for understanding the antagonistic properties of dexmedetomidine on histamine-induced signaling beyond its sedative effect. | Histamine | interleukin 6 | Homo sapiens |
