EndoNet ID: ENR00998

To link to the content of EndoNet use the EndoNet ID that is given on the detail pages in the format ENX0000, where X is a place holder for the type of the component (e. g. R for receptor or C for anatomical structure).
As URL for the linking append this ID to the detail page for this type of component.
For an hormone that would be:

If the search pattern is unambigious the user is directed to the corresponding detail page.

Synonyms

  • H4
  • histamine H4 receptor
  • HH4R
  • GPRv53
  • G-protein coupled receptor 105
  • GPCR105
  • SP9144
  • AXOR35

General information

  • High expression on bone marrow and peripheral hematopoietic cells, eosinophils, neutrophils, DCs, T cells, basophils, mast cells, low expression in nerve cells, hepatocytes, peripheral tissues, spleen, thymus, lung, small intestine, colon and heart. [1]
  • Activated intracellular signals: enhanced Ca+2, inhibition of cAMP. [1]
  • The presence of the hH4R on leukocytes and mast cells suggests that this new histamine receptor plays an important role in the modulation of the immune system. [2]
  • IL-10 and IL-13 modulate hH4R expression and that binding sites for cytokine-regulated transcription factors [2]
  • The histamine H4 receptor is involved in the chemotaxis of leukocytes and mast cells to sites of inflammation and is suggested to be a potential drug target for asthma and allergy. [2]
