General description
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.
Application
Carcinine dihydrochloride has been used to study its effects on dopaminergic neuron degeneration.
Biochem/physiol Actions
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.
Carcinine is a selective histamine H3 antagonist; antioxidant.
