Target type: biologicalprocess
The directed movement of histamine into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore. Histamine is a physiologically active amine, found in plant and animal tissue and released from mast cells as part of an allergic reaction in humans. [GOC:ai]
Histamine transport is a complex process that involves the movement of histamine, a biogenic amine with a wide range of physiological effects, across cell membranes. Histamine is synthesized from the amino acid histidine by the enzyme histidine decarboxylase and is primarily stored in mast cells and basophils. Upon activation, these cells release histamine, which mediates various physiological responses, including allergic reactions, inflammation, and gastric acid secretion. Histamine transport occurs via specialized membrane proteins called histamine transporters. These transporters belong to the solute carrier (SLC) family, specifically the SLC17A1 family. Histamine transporters are responsible for both uptake and efflux of histamine, ensuring its proper distribution and regulation in the body. The uptake of histamine into mast cells and basophils is essential for the storage and subsequent release of this crucial signaling molecule. Conversely, the efflux of histamine from these cells and other tissues helps to regulate its concentration in the extracellular space. The histamine transport process is tightly regulated by various factors, including the concentration of histamine itself, the pH of the environment, and the presence of other molecules that interact with the histamine transporter. This intricate regulation ensures the proper functioning of histamine signaling and its diverse physiological roles.'
