AUTOCOIDS : HISTAMINE
AND BRADYKININ
PRESENTED BY : CHAUDHARY NEHA
DEPARTMENT OF PHARMACOLOGY

AUTOCOIDS
• Autocoids are naturally ocurring substances
that produce wide range of pharmacological
actions in small amounts
• They are also termed as local hormone since
they produced locally in response to some
stimulus (e.g. during inflamation)
• The term autocoid derived from
auto=self and akos=remedy or medicinal agent
3. Page 3
HISTAMINE
• Histamine is a basic amine , stored in granules
within mast cells & basophils
• Secreted when complement components C3a
& C5a interact with specific membrane
receptors or when antigen interact with cell-
fixed IgE
• It produce effect by acting on H1,H2 or H3
receptors on target cells
4. Page 4
Main Action In Human
• Stimulation of gastric secretion(H2)
• Contraction of smooth musle other than that of
blood vessels(H1)
• Cardiac stimulation(H2)
• Vasodilation(H1)
• Increased vascular permeability(H1)
5. Page 5
• The main pathophysiological roles of
histamine are:
– as a stimulant of gastric acid secretion (treated
with H2-receptor antagonists)
– as a mediator of type I hypersensitivity reactions
such as urticaria and hay fever (treated with H1-
receptor antagonists).
• H3 receptors occur at presynaptic sites and
inhibit the release of a variety of
neurotransmitters
6. Page 6
• Injected intradermally, histamine causes the
'triple response':
• reddening (local vasodilatation),
• wheal (direct action on blood vessels)
• flare (from an 'axon' reflex in sensory nerves
releasing a peptide mediator)
8. Page 8
What is agonist???
• An agonist is a drug that once bound to the
receptor, initiates a change in cellular activity.
• The binding of the agonist often triggers a
series of biochemical events which ultimately
lead to the alteration in function
9. Page 9
CONT…
• Agonist Receptor Generation of secondary
messenger Change in cellular activity
• Some important secondary messenger systems
activated by the binding of agonists to cell
surface receptors include:
• 1) The cyclic AMP and GMP systems
• 2) Calcium and calmodulin
• 3) Phosphoinositides and diacylglycerol
11. Page 11
BETAHISTINE
• A histamine analogue and H1 receptor agonist
that serves as a vasodilator
• Betahistine has a very strong affinity for
histamine H3 receptors and a weak affinity for
histamine H1 receptors
12. Page 12
PHARMACOKINETIC
• Protein binding : Very low
• Metabolism : To 2-(2-aminoethyl)pyridine and
2-pyridylacetic acid
• Half-life: 3–4 hours
• Excretion : complete in the urine within 24
hours
13. Page 13
SIDE EFFECTS
• Low level of gastric side effects
• Nausea can be a side effect
• Decreased appetite, leading to weight loss
• Patients taking betahistine hydrochloride may
experience several hypersensitivity and
allergic reactions
• Headache
14. Page 14
THERAPEUTIC USES
• Betahistine hydrochloride is an antivertigo
drug
• For the treatment of Menieres disease
15. Page 15
• Antagonists can bind to receptors but do not
initiate a change in cellular function.
• However, occupation of the receptor can
prevent the binding and actions of agonists.
• Antagonists are also referred to as blockers
17. Page 17
CONT…
1. Physiologic antagonists:
Epinephrine has smooth muscle actions opposite to
histamine but by actiong on different types of receptors
2. Histamine release inhibitors:
Reduce immunologic release of histamine from mast cells
a) Mast cell stabilizers: Cromolyn and nedocromil
b) Beta 2 adrenergic agonists --- used in Bronchial
Asthma
3. Histamine receptor antagonists
Compounds that competitively block histamine, mainly
H1& H2 receptors.

Chlorpheniramine
• Selective antagonist for H2:Cimetidine
Ranitidine

PHARMACOKINETICS
1- First Generation Agents:
Rapidly absorbed from the GIT
Widely distributed
Cross blood-brain barrier
Extensively metabolized by the cytochrome
P450 and metabolites are active and are excreted
by the kidney
Duration of action 4-6 hours
24. Page 24
PHARMACOKINETICS
2- Second Generation
Rapidly absorbed from the GIT
Widely distributed
Do not cross the blood-brain barrier (less
lipid soluble)
Elimination: Cetirizine (urine) and
fexofenadine (bile)
28. Page 28
PHARMACOKINETIC
• Absorbed orally well
• Oral bioavaibility of nizatidine-90% ,
where as ,others have 50% because of first pass
metabolism
Peak effect is reached within 2 hours
Excreted unchanged in kidney by tubular
secretion
31. Page 31
Bradykinin
• Bradykinin formed by proteolytic cleavage of
circulating proteins termed kininogens.
• Synthesis and metabolism of bradykinin
32. Page 32
Kinins
Receptors, Actions & Therapy
• The activate B1, B2, B3 receptors linked to
PLC/A2
• Powerful Vasodilation→ decreased blood
pressure via B2 receptor stimulation (NO-
dependent)
• Increase in capillary permeability inducing
edema.
It produces inflammation & analgesia (B2)
33. Page 33
CONT..
• Cardiac stimulation:
Compensatory indirect & direct tachycardia &
increase in cardiac output
• It produces coronary vasodilation
Bradykinin has a cardiac anti-ischemic effect,
inhibited by B2 antagonists (NO & PI2
dependent)
34. Page 34
Pharmacological actions:
– vasodilatation
– increased vascular permeability
– stimulation of pain nerve endings
– stimulation of epithelial ion transport and fluid
secretion in airways and gastrointestinal tract
– contraction of intestinal and uterine smooth
muscle.
35. Page 35
Kinins
Actions & Therapy
• Kinins produce broncho-constriction & itching
in respiratory system .
• Therapeutic Use:
No current use of kinin analogues
Increased bradykinin is possibly involved in
the therapeutic efficiency & cough produced
by ACEIs
36. Page 36
kallekrein inhibitor
• Aprotinin (Trasylolol), a kallekrein inhibitor,
used in treatment of acute pancreatitis,
carcinoid syndrome & hyperfibrinolysis.
• Ecallantide :is a human plasma kallikrein
inhibitor injection for subcutaneous use.
37. Page 37
Bradykinin Antagonist
• Deltibant : It is a novel Bradykinin Antagonist used in
treatment of Severe Systemic Inflammatory Response
Syndrome and Sepsis
• Icatibant :It is a synthetic decapeptide functioning as
a potent,competative antagonist of the bradykinin 2
receptor
• usedinmanagement of Heriditary angioedema
• Given by subcutaneous injection 3ml (30mg), half life1-2
hours
• Rapid onset usually within an hour, systemic side effects
rare and local side effects at site of injection are common
but transient
38. Page 38
Drug interaction
• ACE inhibitors like captopril block B(2)
receptor desensitization, thereby potentiating
bradykinin beyond blocking its hydrolysis.
