cimetidine and Mastocytosis

cimetidine has been researched along with Mastocytosis in 5 studies

Cimetidine: A histamine congener, it competitively inhibits HISTAMINE binding to HISTAMINE H2 RECEPTORS. Cimetidine has a range of pharmacological actions. It inhibits GASTRIC ACID secretion, as well as PEPSIN and GASTRIN output.
cimetidine : A member of the class of guanidines that consists of guanidine carrying a methyl substituent at position 1, a cyano group at position 2 and a 2-{[(5-methyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)methyl]sulfanyl}ethyl group at position 3. It is a H2-receptor antagonist that inhibits the production of acid in stomach.

Mastocytosis: A rare neoplastic disorder characterized by a clonal proliferation of MAST CELLS, associated with KIT-D816 mutations, and accompanied by aberrant mast cell activation. The abnormal increase of MAST CELLS may occur in only the skin (MASTOCYTOSIS, CUTANEOUS), in extracutaneous tissues involving multiple organs (MASTOCYTOSIS, SYSTEMIC), or in solid tumors (MASTOCYTOMA).

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Treatment with cimetidine (H2 receptor antagonist) resulted in diarrhea, however, the addition of cyproheptadine (H1 receptor antagonist) was beneficial in amelioration of the cutaneous symptoms of mastocytosis."3.68Systemic mastocytosis treated with histamine H1 and H2 receptor antagonists. ( Falk, ES; Gasior-Chrzan, B, 1992)
"In the cyclosporin-A- and prednisolone-treated groups, mastocytosis was suppressed, but worm expulsion was only slightly delayed, without statistical significance."1.32Effects of anti-allergic drugs on intestinal mastocytosis and worm expulsion of rats infected with Neodiplostomum seoulense. ( Chai, JY; Guk, SM; Hong, SJ; Kim, TH; Park, JH; Shin, EH, 2003)
" The dosage was increased to 975 mg every 6 hours, and he has had no further hypotensive episodes on this regime for 2 years."1.27Systemic mastocytosis: management of an unusual case with histamine (H1 and H2) antagonists and cyclooxygenase inhibition. ( Crawhall, JC; Wilkinson, RD, 1987)
