How to use
In Vitro:
L-histidine completely inhibits growth and its effect on viability is inversely related to FLO11 expression. L-histidine does not affect the viability of the Δflo11 and S288c strains. L-histidine dramatically decreases air-liquid biofilm formation and adhesion to polystyrene of the flor yeasts with no effect on the transcription level of the FLO11 gene. Moreover, L-histidine modifies the chitin and glycans content on the cell-wall of flor yeasts.
In Vivo:
L-histidine (100 mg/kg) completely inhibits the brain edema in thioacetamide-treated rats. Histamine release stimulated by high K+ from the hypothalamus in the L-histidine diet group is 60% of that in the control group. However, the concentrations of other monoamines and their metabolites are not changed by the L-histidine diet. The open-field tests show that the L-histidine diet group spends a shorter amount of time in the central zone, and the light/dark box tests demonstrate that the L-histidine diet group spends a shorter amount of time in the light box, suggesting that the L-histidine diet induced anxiety-like behaviors.
