The antiglycation potential of H1 receptor antagonists - in vitro studies in bovine serum albumin model and in silico molecular docking analyses.
Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy 2024 April 25
The H1 receptor belongs to the family of rhodopsin-like G-protein-coupled receptors activated by the biogenic amine histamine. H1 receptor antagonists are widely used in the treatment of allergies. However, these drugs could have a much broader spectrum of activity, including hypoglycemic effects, which can broaden the spectrum of their use. The aim of the study was to evaluate the antiglycation potential of twelve H1 receptor antagonists (diphenhydramine, antazoline, promethazine, ketotifen, clemastine, pheniramine, cetirizine, levocetirizine, bilastine, fexofenadine, desloratadine, and loratadine). Bovine serum albumin (BSA) was glycated with sugars (glucose, fructose, galactose, and ribose) and aldehydes (glyoxal and methylglyoxal) in the presence of H1 blockers. The tested substances did not induce a significant decrease in the content of albumin glycation end-products, and the inhibition rate of glycoxidation was not influenced by the chemical structure or generation of H1 blockers. None of the tested H1 receptor antagonists exhibited strong antiglycation activity. Antiglycemic potential of H1 blockers could be attributed to their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, as well as their effects on carbohydrate metabolism/metabolic balance at the systemic level.
