  • Title: Effect of histamine on wound healing.
    Author: Bairy KL, Rao CM, Ramesh KV, Kulkarni DR.
    Journal: Indian J Physiol Pharmacol; 1991 Jul; 35(3):180-2. PubMed ID: 1791057.
    Abstract:
    Using incision, excision and dead space wound models in rats, a study was conducted on the effect of histamine on wound healing. Exogenous histamine given either ip or locally was without any effect. Semicarbazide as (histamine synthesis inhibitor) suppressed healing process (breaking strength of skin incision wound), decreased breaking strength and hydroxyproline content of granulation tissue and delay in period of epithelization. On the other hand compound 48/80 (a promoter of histamine forming capacity) was found to promote wound healing. Exogenous histamine (topical) reversed the anti-healing effect of semicarbazide on incision and excision wounds.
