One of these amino acids is <strong>histidine<\/strong>, from which the biogenic amine <strong>histamine<\/strong> is formed. Histidine is particularly important for infants, as their bodies cannot produce enough of it themselves. In adults, it is unclear whether histidine is considered essential, although the body can only produce it to a limited extent itself. A dietary intake therefore remains important.     <\/p>\n\n<table id=\"tablepress-4\" class=\"tablepress tablepress-id-4\">\n<thead>\n<tr class=\"row-1\">\n\t<th class=\"column-1\">Aminos\u00e4ure<\/th><th class=\"column-2\">Abk\u00fcrzung<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody class=\"row-striping row-hover\">\n<tr class=\"row-2\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Alanin<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Ala<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-3\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Arginin<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Arg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-4\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Asparagin<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Asn<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-5\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Asparagins\u00e4ure<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Asp<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-6\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Cystein<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Cys<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-7\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Glutamin<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Gln<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-8\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Glutamins\u00e4ure<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Glu<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-9\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Glycin<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Gly<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-10\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Histidin<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">His<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-11\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Isoleucin<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Ile<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-12\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Leucin<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Leu<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-13\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Lysin<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Lys<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-14\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Methionin<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Met<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-15\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Phenylalanin<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Phe<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-16\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Prolin<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Pro<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-17\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Serin<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Ser<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-18\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Threonin<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Thr<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-19\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Tryptophan<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Trp<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-20\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Tyrosin<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Tyr<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-21\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Valin<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Val<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<!-- #tablepress-4 from cache -->\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Histamine: from amino acid building block to messenger substance<\/h3>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"673\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nahrungsmittel-intoleranz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/histamin_tafel.jpg\" alt=\"Histamine on blackboard at university\" class=\"wp-image-313468\" style=\"width:350px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nahrungsmittel-intoleranz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/histamin_tafel.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.nahrungsmittel-intoleranz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/histamin_tafel-300x197.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nahrungsmittel-intoleranz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/histamin_tafel-768x505.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The amino acid histidine is the starting material for the formation of histamine. This biogenic amine is involved in many processes in the body. It is found in our body in various tissues and cells and plays a central role in many biological reactions, such as the inflammatory response, the regulation of the sleep-wake rhythm, digestion and the immune response. Histamine receptors play an important role here.   <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-histaminrezeptoren\">Histamine receptors<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Histamine receptors are special proteins that react to the effect of histamine and thereby regulate various physiological processes in the body. There are four main types of histamine receptors, each of which has different functions and acts in different ways in the body: <\/p>\n\n<table id=\"tablepress-5\" class=\"tablepress tablepress-id-5\">\n<thead>\n<tr class=\"row-1\">\n\t<th class=\"column-1\">Rezeptor<\/th><th class=\"column-2\">Funktionen<\/th><th class=\"column-3\">Beispiele f\u00fcr Wirkung<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody class=\"row-striping row-hover\">\n<tr class=\"row-2\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">H1<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Allergie Typ I, Entz\u00fcndung, Juckreiz, \u00dcbelkeit<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Heuschnupfen, Asthma, Schwellungen<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-3\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">H2<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Magens\u00e4ureproduktion, Herzfrequenz Steigerung<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Sodbrennen<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-4\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">H3<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Neurotransmitter-Regulation<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Schlaf-Wach-Rhythmus, Hungergef\u00fchl<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-5\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">H4<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Immunregulation, Entz\u00fcndungen<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Allergien, Asthma, Autoimmunerkrankungen<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<!-- #tablepress-5 from cache -->\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-weitere-biogene-amine\">Other biogenic amines<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to histamine, there are other biogenic amines, such as <strong>tyramine<\/strong>, which is formed from the amino acid <strong>tyrosine<\/strong>. Tyramine has an anti-inflammatory effect and influences the metabolism. However, it also has an activating effect on the sympathetic nervous system by releasing neurotransmitters such as noradrenaline and dopamine. These substances increase blood pressure, raise the heart rate and mobilize energy reserves, which leads to a kind of &#8220;stress response&#8221; in the body.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Putrescine<\/strong> and <strong>cadaverine<\/strong> are mainly produced by bacterial degradation and are particularly known for their unpleasant odor. Putrescine is formed from the amino acid ornithine, while cadaverine is formed from the amino acid lysine. These substances are found in higher concentrations in fermented foods such as cheese, meat or fish. However, in small quantities they are part of the normal cell metabolism in the body and can be important for the cell growth process.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are sensitive to histamine (including other biogenic amines), these foods can trigger <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nahrungsmittel-intoleranz.com\/en\/histamine-intolerance-symptoms-treatment\/\">symptoms of h istamine  <strong>intolerance<\/strong><\/a>. With histamine intolerance, the body is unable to break down histamine properly, which can lead to symptoms such as headaches, reddening of the skin or digestive problems. <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading smalldark has-large-font-size\" id=\"h-quellen\">Sources<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"smalldark has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Jarisch R., &#8220;Histaminintoleranz &#8211; Histamin und Seekrankheit&#8221;, 3rd edition 2013, Thieme Verlag<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"smalldark has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">K\u00f6rner U., Schareina A., &#8220;Food allergies and intolerances&#8221;, 2010, Haug Verlag<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"smalldark has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Guideline &#8220;Procedure for suspected intolerance to orally ingested histamine&#8221;, German Society for Allergology and Clinical Immunology e.V.
