Application


Carcinine dihydrochloride has been used to study its effects on dopaminergic neuron degeneration.


Biochem/physiol Actions


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 (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.

General description


Carcinine, a natural peptide derivative, with a ?-alanyl residue and a histamine, carries an imidazole ring. In mammals, carcinine is present in the brain, muscle, intestine and liver tissues.
