There are multiple lines of evidence suggesting interplay between histamine and polyamines in several mammalian cell types. However, the complex metabolic context makes it difficult to elucidate the mechanisms involved. Histamine's effects can be elicited after its binding to any of the four subtypes of G-protein coupled histamine membrane receptors. In addition, intracellular histamine can also interfere with polyamine metabolism, since there are several metabolic connections between the synthesis and degradation pathways of both types of amines. In order to dissect the metabolic effects of intracellular histamine on polyamine metabolism, we chose a well-known cell culture line, i.e., the human embryonic kidney 293 cells (HEK-293 cells). Initially, we show that HEK-293 cells lack a polyamine metabolic response to extracellular histamine, even over a wide range of histamine concentrations. HEK-293 cells were transfected with active and inactive versions of human histidine decarboxylase, and changes in many of the overlapping metabolic factors and limiting steps were tested. Overall, the results indicate a regulatory effect of histamine on the post-transcriptional expression of ornithine decarboxylase and suggest that this effect is primarily responsible for the decrease in polyamine synthesis and partial blockade of cell-cycle progression, which should affect cell proliferation rate.
