Histamine-mediated potentiation of transient receptor potential (TRP) ankyrin 1 and TRP vanilloid 4 signaling in submucosal neurons in patients with irritable bowel syndrome
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Previously, we showed histamine-mediated sensitization of transient receptor potential (TRP) vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Sensitization of TRP ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) and TRP vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) are also involved in aberrant pain perception in preclinical models of somatic pain. Here, we hypothesize that in parallel with TRPV1, histamine sensitizes TRPA1 and TRPV4, contributing to increased visceral pain in patients with IBS. Rectal biopsies were collected from patients with IBS and healthy subjects (HS) to study neuronal sensitivity to TRPA1 and TRPV4 agonists (cinnamaldehyde and GSK1016790A) using intracellular Ca 2+ imaging. In addition, the effect of supernatants of rectal biopsies on patients with IBS and HS was assessed on TRPA1 and TRPV4 responses in murine dorsal root ganglion (DRG) sensory neurons. Finally, we evaluated the role of histamine and histamine 1 receptor (H 1 R) in TRPA1 and TRPV4 sensitization. Application of TRPA1 and TRPV4 agonists evoked significantly higher peak amplitudes and percentage of responding submucosal neurons in biopsies of patients with IBS compared with HS. In HS, pretreatment with histamine significantly increased the Ca 2+ responses to cinnamaldehyde and GSK1016790A, an effect prevented by H 1 R antagonism. IBS supernatants, but not of HS, sensitized TRPA1 and TRPV4 on DRG neurons. This effect was reproduced by histamine and prevented by H 1 R antagonism. We demonstrate that the mucosal microenvironment in IBS contains mediators, such as histamine, which sensitize TRPV4 and TRPA1 via H 1 R activation, most likely contributing to increased visceral pain perception in IBS. These data further underscore H 1 R antagonism as potential treatment for IBS. NEW & NOTEWORTHY We provide evidence for histamine-mediated transient receptor potential (TRP) ankyrin 1 and TRP vanilloid 4 sensitization in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) via histamine 1 receptor (H 1 R) activation, most likely contributing to increased visceral pain perception. Our results reveal a general role of sensory TRP channels as histamine effectors in the pathophysiology of IBS and provide novel mechanistic insights into the therapeutic potential of H 1 R antagonism in IBS.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
