Abstract
A thin layer chromatographic system is presented for the separation of histamine (H), 1,4-methylhistamine (M), acid metabolites comprising imidazole and methylimidazole acetic acids (A) and N-acetylhistamine (N). The system was applied to separation of the histamine metabolites formed following incubation of rabbit and guinea-pig thoracic aorta segments with labelled histamine. The effects of various agents known to affect histamine uptake, storage and metabolism in vascular tissue were studied on the disposition of histamine metabolites.
