Methylhistamine, histamine's metabolite, was measured in urine by radio-immuno-assay in 79 provocation test. Six of them were positive with clinical symptoms. All of the six were associated with a significant increase of urinary methylhistamine (UMH). Therefore, there is a good correlation between positive provocation tests and increase of UMH level. In these cases, the severity of clinical symptoms is related to the increase of U.M.H.

Biomarkers in the diagnosis of mast cell activation.
Curr Opin Allergy Clin Immunol

Division of Allergic Diseases, Mayo Clinic Rochester, Rochester, Minnesota, USA.
Purpose Of Review: Mast cell activation is defined by activation of mast cells by varying stimuli with release of chemical mediators either through degranulation or release of de novo synthesized proteins or lipid mediators. Currently, tryptase measurement increase during symptomatic episodes is the most accepted biomarker measurement for mast cell activation. However, newer diagnostic tools including clinically available urinary mast cell mediators are noninvasive and can be more readily obtained compared to serum tryptase levels.

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is characterized by epithelial proliferation and progressive cyst enlargement. Using a non-targeted high-resolution metabolomics approach, we analyzed biofluids from 36 ADPKD and 18 healthy controls with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) > 60 ml/min to identify features specific to ADPKD or that associate with disease severity [eGFR or height-corrected total kidney volume (htTKV)]. Multiple pathways differed between ADPKD subjects and controls, with the histidine pathway being the most highly represented.

Background: US-based perioperative anaphylaxis (POA) studies are limited to single-center experiences. A recent report found that a serum acute tryptase (sAT) >9.8 ng/mL or mast cell activation (MCA) can predict POA causal agent identification.

Objective: To test whether recombinant human diamine oxidase (rhDAO) with a mutated heparin-binding motif (mHBM), which shows an increased alpha-distribution half-life, prevents histamine-induced hemodynamic effects.
Material: Thirty-eight female guinea pigs were either pretreated with rhDOA_mHBM or buffer.
Treatment And Methods: Guinea pigs received a continuous infusion of histamine.

Efforts are currently being directed to identify a non-invasive marker that can serve as a solid and clinically irrefutable diagnostic criterion for histamine intolerance associated with diamine oxidase (DAO) deficiency. Accordingly, the identification of biomarkers of histamine (HA) metabolism in urine is proposed as a possible new diagnostic strategy. It is hypothesized that individuals with histamine intolerance could have a different urinary profile of HA and its metabolites in comparison with the healthy population.
