一般描述
Carcinine, a natural peptide derivative, with a β-alanyl residue and a histamine, carries an imidazole ring. In mammals, carcinine is present in the brain, muscle, intestine and liver tissues.
应用
Carcinine dihydrochloride has been used to study its effects on dopaminergic neuron degeneration.
生化/生理作用
Carcinine (β-alanyl histamine) is a selective histamine H3 antagonist, 100-1000-fold selective for H3 over H2 and H1, that also functions as an antioxidant and as a chemical chaperone to reduce non-enzymatic glycation of proteins and maintain native folding of proteins.
Carcinine can scavenge a toxic product, called 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), obtained during lipid oxidation. It has a protective role from oxidative damage on photoreceptor cells. Carcinine also exhibits lipid-peroxidase activity.

The activation of microglial cells is presumed to play a key role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). The activity of microglia is regulated by the histamine-4 receptor (H4R), thus providing a novel target that may prevent the progression

Oxidative stress induces retinal damage and contributes to vision loss in progressive retinopathies. Carcinine (β-alanyl-histamine) is a natural imidazole-containing peptide derivative with antioxidant activity. It is predicted to scavenge 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), a toxic product of lipid oxidation. The aim of
