pyrilamine and Cystic Fibrosis

pyrilamine has been researched along with Cystic Fibrosis in 1 studies

Pyrilamine: A histamine H1 antagonist. It has mild hypnotic properties and some local anesthetic action and is used for allergies (including skin eruptions) both parenterally and locally. It is a common ingredient of cold remedies.
mepyramine : An ethylenediamine derivative that is ethylenediamine in which one of the amino nitrogens is substituted by two methyl groups and the remaining amino nitrogen is substituted by a 4-methoxybenzyl and a pyridin-2-yl group.

Cystic Fibrosis: An autosomal recessive genetic disease of the EXOCRINE GLANDS. It is caused by mutations in the gene encoding the CYSTIC FIBROSIS TRANSMEMBRANE CONDUCTANCE REGULATOR expressed in several organs including the LUNG, the PANCREAS, the BILIARY SYSTEM, and the SWEAT GLANDS. Cystic fibrosis is characterized by epithelial secretory dysfunction associated with ductal obstruction resulting in AIRWAY OBSTRUCTION; chronic RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS; PANCREATIC INSUFFICIENCY; maldigestion; salt depletion; and HEAT PROSTRATION.

" Changes in [Ca2+]i and inositol phosphate production exhibit a similar dose-response relationship for histamine (maximal effect at 10(-4) M), with both phenomena being blocked by the H1 antagonist mepyramine and being insensitive to pertussis toxin treatment."1.29Histamine activates phospholipase C in human airway epithelial cells via a phorbol ester-sensitive pathway.
