Abstract
The first time the role of histamine and H1-histamine receptors in the mechanisms of ceftriaxone-induced diarrhea in rats. Investigation of the flow of water and electrolytes through the epithelium of the colon performed male rats Wistar (180-250 g), isolated area by perfusion in vivo, for the actions of ceftriaxone (50 mg/kg intramuscularly), histamine (1,8; 3,6; 7,2 mg/ kg, introperytonealno, and 3,6 mg*kg-1 *h-1 intravenously) and loratadine (1,7 mg/kg, per os). Histamine intravenous administration, similar to ceftriaxone, makes a pro-secretory effect on the transport of water and sodium. Blockade of H1-histamine receptors loratadine prevents clinical signs ceftriaxone-induced diarrhea that accompanied the restoration of total water flow indicators and potassium through the epithelium of the colon of rats. Loratadine can be recommended for the prevention of diarrhea antybiotykasotsiyovanoyi not infectious etiology.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of histamine, a product of e.g. mast cells, on short-circuit current (I(sc)) across rat distal colon. Histamine concentration-dependently stimulated an increase in I(sc), which often was preceded by a transient negative current. Neither a release of neurotransmitters nor a release of prostaglandins contributed to the histamine response. The histamine-induced increase in I(sc) was blocked by the histamine H(1) antagonist, pyrilamine, but was resistant against the histamine H(2) antagonist, cimetidine. Conversely, the histamine H(1) agonist, TMPH (2-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)histamine), exclusively evoked an increase in I(sc), whereas the histamine H(2) agonist, amthamine, evoked only a decrease in I(sc) suggesting that stimulation of different types of histamine receptors is responsible for the two phases of the response evoked by native histamine. Histamine induces the opening of glibenclamide-sensitive Cl(-) channels and of charybdotoxin-sensitive K(+) channels in the apical membrane as demonstrated by experiments at basolaterally depolarized epithelia. A further action site is the basolateral membrane, because histamine stimulates a charybdotoxin- and tetrapentylammonium-sensitive K(+) conductance in this membrane as observed in tissues, in which the apical membrane was permeabilized with an ionophore, nystatin. The increase in I(sc) evoked by histamine was blocked after depletion of intracellular Ca(2+) stores with cyclopiazonic acid and after blockade of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) receptors, suggesting a release of stored Ca(2+). This was confirmed by the observation that the histamine H(1) agonist TMPH induced an increase in the fura-2 ratio signal of epithelial cells within isolated colonic crypts. Consequently, the mediator histamine seems to stimulate both histamine H(1) and H(2) receptors, from which the former seems to be prominently involved in the induction of epithelial chloride secretion.

Abstract
Neural and paracrine agents, such as dopamine, epinephrine, and histamine, affect intestinal epithelial function, but it is unclear if these agents act on receptors directly at the enterocyte level. The cellular localization and villus-crypt distribution of adrenergic, dopamine, and histamine receptors within the intestinal epithelium is obscure and needs to be identified. Single cell populations of villus or crypt epithelial cells were isolated from the jejunum of adult guinea pigs. Enterocytes were separated from intraepithelial lymphocytes by flow cytometry and specific binding was determined using fluorescent probes. α1-adrenergic receptors were located on villus and crypt intraepithelial lymphocytes and enterocytes. β-adrenergic receptors were found on villus and crypt enterocytes. Dopamine receptors were found on all cell types examined, whereas histamine receptors were not detected (<10% for each cell population). These studies demonstrated that (1) receptors for epinephrine and dopamine exist on epithelial cells of the guinea pig jejunum, (2) β-adrenergic receptors are found primarily on villus and crypt enterocytes and (3) intraepithelial lymphocytes contain α1-adrenergic, but have few β-adrenergic, receptors. The presence of neural receptors suggests that these agents are acting, at least in part, at the enterocyte or intraepithelial lymphocyte levels to modulate intestinal and immune function.Key words: enterocyte, receptor, intestine, epithelium.

Abstract
Intestinal inflammation causes hyporesponsiveness of the inflamed tissue to secretagogues but little is known about the behaviour of the areas proximal to the site of inflammation. We studied the responses of the proximal segment of the colon to carbachol, histamine, isobutylmethylxanthine (IBMX) and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) in rats with trinitrobenzenesulphonic acid (TNBS)-induced, chronic inflammation of the distal colon. Macroscopic and biochemical analysis ruled out the presence of inflammation in the proximal colon. When mounted in Ussing chambers under voltage-clamp conditions, basal transport and conductance were not affected. However, the maximum response in the concentration/response curves (short-circuit current) for carbachol and histamine was reduced in TNBS-treated rats, without changes in the EC(50). This effect corresponded to reduced chloride secretion, as demonstrated by ion substitution experiments. The responses to IBMX and VIP were virtually unaffected. The inhibitory effect was abolished by pretreatment with the neural blockers tetrodotoxin and lidocaine but not indomethacin, suggesting that the enteric nervous system is responsible for the inhibition. In conclusion, chronic distal inflammation of the distal colon results in inhibition of calcium-dependent secretion in the proximal colon via a reduction of the contribution of the enteric nervous system.

Abstract
Extracellular nucleotides are important regulators of epithelial ion transport. Here we investigated nucleotide-mediated effects on colonic NaCl secretion and the signal transduction mechanisms involved. Basolateral UDP induced a sustained activation of Cl(-) secretion, which was completely inhibited by 293B, a specific inhibitor of cAMP-stimulated basolateral KCNQ1/KCNE3 K(+) channels. We therefore speculated that a basolateral P2Y(6) receptor could increase cAMP. Indeed UDP elevated cAMP in isolated crypts. We identified an epithelial P2Y(6) receptor using crypt [Ca(2+)](i) measurements, RT-PCR, and immunohistochemistry. To investigate whether the rat P2Y(6)elevates cAMP, we coexpressed the P2Y(1) or P2Y(6) receptor together with the cAMP-regulated cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) Cl(-) channel in Xenopus oocytes. A two-electrode voltage clamp was used to monitor nucleotide-induced Cl(-) currents. In oocytes expressing the P2Y(1) receptor, ATP transiently activated the endogenous Ca(2+)-activated Cl(-) current, but not CFTR. In contrast, in oocytes expressing the P2Y(6)receptor, UDP transiently activated the Ca(2+)-activated Cl(-) current and subsequently CFTR. CFTR Cl(-) currents were identified by their halide conductance sequence. In summary we find a basolateral P2Y(6) receptor in colonic epithelial cells stimulating sustained NaCl secretion by way of a synergistic increase of [Ca(2+)](i) and cAMP. In support of these data P2Y(6) receptor stimulation differentially activates CFTR in Xenopus oocytes.

Abstract
The ability of the enteric submucosal plexus to influence the transport of water and electrolytes in the colon was investigated in rats for 1 week after acute whole-body gamma irradiation. The involvement of neuroimmune links in the epithelial responses to nerve stimulation was confirmed by the sensitivity of the tissue to tetrodotoxin, mepyramine and doxantrazole. At 1 and 3 days after irradiation, colon tissues were hyporesponsive to nerve stimulation. This was associated with a drastic diminution of mucosal mast cell numbers, tissue histamine levels, and rat mast cell protease II (RMCP II) levels, and by a decreased maximal epithelial response to exogenously added histamine. The responses to electric-field stimulation were insensitive to both mepyramine and doxantrazole. At 7 days, neurally evoked responses recovered, despite the virtual absence of mast cells, tissue histamine and RMCP II, and the continuing decreased response to histamine. The responses were insensitive to doxantrazole but were decreased by mepyramine. This study showed that the establishment of a normal epithelial response to neural stimulation can occur despite the radiation-induced depletion of mucosal mast cells. The recovery of the epithelial response, which was sensitive to mepyramine, may be ascribed to the reappearance of an unknown histaminergic pathway, which probably has indirect effects on epithelial transport but is independent of nerve-mast cell connections.

Abstract
Histamine levels are elevated in inflammatory bowel disease. We investigated the mechanism by which histamine affects electrolyte transport in the mouse cecum. Using the Ussing-chamber voltage clamp technique, histamine was found to cause a transient concentration-dependent increase in short-circuit current, a measure of total ion transport across the epithelial tissue. This increase was not affected by amiloride pretreatment, but was significantly inhibited by bumetanide and completely inhibited when chloride was substituted in the bathing buffer by gluconate. A histamine-induced increase in short-circuit current was also significantly reduced by inhibitors of the cyclooxygenase pathway indicating the involvement of prostaglandin E2 in its action. Prostaglandin E2 levels were increased in histamine treated tissue and this increase was reversed by indomethacin. These data suggest that histamine causes its effect on mouse cecum largely through increasing arachidonic acid metabolism resulting in increased levels of prostaglandins which in turn increase Cl- secretion in the epithelial cells.

Abstract
Histamine, added to the basolateral side of voltage clamped human colon in vitro, induced a rapid onset, transient inward short circuit current which was concentration dependent over the range 0.01-3 mM. This response was largely due to electrogenic chloride section since it was virtually abolished by bumetanide or by chloride replacement in the bathing solutions. Responses were unaffected by amiloride or acetazolamide. Neither the histamine H2 receptor agonist dimaprit (1 mM) nor the histamine H3 receptor agonist S-(+)-alpha-methyl histamine (1 mM) altered short circuit current. Responses to histamine were significantly reduced by the histamine H1 receptor antagonist mepyramine (1-10 microM) but not altered by the histamine H2 receptor antagonist cimetidine (100 microM) or by the histamine H3 receptor antagonist thioperamide (1 microM). Short circuit current responses to histamine were not altered by tetrodotoxin (1 microM). Piroxicam (10 microM) and nordihydroguaiaretic acid (100 microM) were without effect when used individually but significantly reduced responses to histamine when used simultaneously. These results indicate that histamine stimulates chloride secretion across human colonic epithelium by a mechanism which is mediated exclusively via histamine H1 receptors. This action does not involve intrinsic nerves but appears to be dependent upon eicosanoid synthesis.

Abstract
The vasoactive peptide endothelin-1 (ET-1) which is present in high concentrations in the colon, causes concentration-dependent electrogenic Cl- secretion in rabbit descending colon. This effect is half-maximal at 0.11 mumol/l. Like other secretagogues, ET-1 also stimulates K+ secretion. The secretory effect of ET-1 is associated with increased release of prostaglandin E2 from the serosal surface of the mucosa. ET-1-induced Cl- secretion is completely inhibited by the loop diuretic bumetanide and by indomethacin and quinacrine, inhibitors of prostaglandin synthesis. Neuronal mechanisms do not seem to be involved, as tetrodotoxin did not affect the secretory response to ET-1 significantly. On the other hand, neither the catalytic activity nor the transport function of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase of rabbit colon epithelium is affected by endothelin-1 (ET-1) in concentrations up to 10 mumol/l. It is concluded that ET-1 causes Cl- and K+ secretion by stimulating phospholipase A2 and release of prostaglandins, whereas Na+ transport is not altered.

Abstract
1. Cl- channels in the basolateral membrane of non-stimulated parietal cells in isolated rabbit gastric glands were studied by patch-clamp and noise analysis techniques. 2. Voltage-independent whole-cell currents were recorded from parietal cells equilibrated with Cl(-)-containing solutions. Upon reducing the Cl- concentration of the basolateral bathing solution, the current-voltage curve was rapidly shifted to the right. The reversal potential changed according to changes in the equilibrium potential for Cl-. 3. A Cl- channel blocker, 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoate (NPPB) inhibited whole-cell Cl- currents. The half-maximal inhibitory concentration of NPPB was 300 microM, and the inhibition was reversible (at less than or equal to 200 microM). Another Cl- channel blocker, 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-dilsulphonic acid or diphenylamine-2-carboxylate was much less effective. 4. The power spectra of whole-cell Cl- current fluctuations contained one Lorentzian component. The single Cl- channel conductance was estimated to be 0.35 pS by the variance noise analysis, which is in agreement with the value obtained by a method of power spectrum analysis (0.29 pS). 5. The addition of arachidonic acid (10 microM) to the basolateral medium markedly increased the whole-cell Cl- current. The combined application of a cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor, indomethacin (50 microM), and a lipoxygenase inhibitor, esculetin (100 microM), increased the Cl- current, whereas the administration of a phospholipase A2 inhibitor, mepacrine (100 microM), significantly decreased the whole-cell Cl- current. 6. A sizeable increase in the whole-cell Cl- current was also induced by a metabolite of arachidonic acid, prostaglandin E2 (10 microM), but not by leukotriene B4 (5 microM) or D4 (10 microM). 7. The present study has shown that small-conductance Cl- channels are present in the basolateral membrane of rabbit parietal cells, and that the channel was functionally regulated by arachidonic acid and prostaglandin E2.

Abstract
1. Neurokinin A (NKA) is a mammalian tachykinin distributed principally in the nervous system, including the myenteric innervation of the gut. 2. NKA may be involved in neurogenic inflammation and as a modulatory factor in the diarrhoea associated with mucosal inflammation of inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis). 3. We evaluated the effect of NKA on the short-circuit current ISC, assumed to reflect electrogenic chloride secretion, across muscle-stripped rat colonic mucosa mounted in Ussing chambers. 4. Serosal addition of NKA produced a concentration-dependent (0.1-100 nM) increase in ISC with an EC50 (half-maximal effective concentration) value of 7.5 nM. The maximum (mean +/- S.E.M.) increase in ISC (microA/cm2) for NKA was 111 +/- 10. 5. Tetrodotoxin (0.5 microM) and bumetanide (10 microM), but not atropine (1.0 microM), hexamethonium (100 microM) or pyrilamine (10 microM), significantly inhibited NKA-induced increases in ISC. 6. The response to NKA was attenuated by 45 min pre-treatment with antisera raised against vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP). Moreover, prior desensitization to VIP attenuated the effect of NKA. 7. These studies suggest that NKA increases ISC in rat colon, in part, through a non-cholinergic neural mechanism involving VIP.

Abstract
Deoxycholic acid (DA) caused a dose-related release of histamine (HR) from mast cells of rat peritoneum (RPMC) and mucosal cells of guinea pig rectocolon (RCMC). In both cell populations, DA-induced HR was: (1) accompared by a parallel release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), (2) not affected by metabolic inhibitors, (3) dependent on time of incubation, temperature and pH, and affected by Ca++ concentration in RPMC but not in RCMC. DA-induced HR from RCMC may be involved in certain functional disorders of the colon.

Abstract
Rat colon perfused intraluminally in vitro and in vivo released histamine into the perfusates. Histamine release was increased by rhein 0.1-10 micrograms/ml and much more by rheinanthrone 0.1-10 micrograms/ml but not by sennosides A or B 1-10 micrograms/ml. The effect of rhein and rheinanthrone was reduced by tritoqualine 20 mg/kg. This raises the possibility that laxation by senna and its derivatives involves histamine formation.

Abstract
Several candidate mediators of acute inflammation such as E-type prostaglandins, histamine and bradykinin are potent pro-diarrhoeal colonic secretagogues. They act to increase serosal to mucosal transport of chloride and passive water efflux. We investigated the effects of platelet activating factor (PAF) on muscle-stripped rat colon, measuring transepithelial potential difference (p.d.) and, under voltage clamp conditions, short circuit current (Isc). PAF induced dose-dependent increases in p.d. and Isc, with an approximate EC50 of 1.5 X 10(-10) M; similar concentrations of lyso-PAF had a much smaller but discernible effect. PAF and lyso-PAF both displayed 'sidedness' with serosal application effective and mucosal application ineffective. Inhibitor studies suggest that chloride is the principal ion carrier, but the specific PAF receptor antagonists kadsurenone, L652731, CV 3988 and WEB 2086 did not block the response. Unlike bradykinin, PAF did not cause the release of PGE2 into the serosal bathing fluid, and its action was not attenuated by the cyclo-oxygenase inhibitors piroxicam, mefenamic acid or flurbiprofen. We conclude that PAF has a powerful pro-diarrhoeal secretory action on colonic epithelium which is not mediated by the previously defined PAF receptor(s) and is independent of prostanoid generation.
