Recent Advances in Molecular Pharmacology of the Histamine Systems: Physiology and Pharmacology of Histamine H3 Receptor: Roles in Feeding Regulation and Therapeutic Potential for Metabolic Disorders

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2006
.: Histamine H3 receptors (H3Rs) are autoreceptors that negatively regulate the release of histamine and other neurotransmitters such as norepinephrine, dopamine, and acetylcholine in the central nervous system (CNS).

The Quantum Nature of Drug-Receptor Interactions: Deuteration Changes Binding Affinities for Histamine Receptor Ligands. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
In this article we report a combined experimental and computational study concerning the effects of deuteration on the binding of histamine and two other histaminergic agonists to 3H-tiotidine-labeled histamine H2 receptor in neonatal rat astrocytes ...

The Regulation of ICAM-1 and LFA-1 Interaction by Autacoids and Statins: a Novel Strategy for Controlling Inflammation and Immune Responses

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2003
Histamine, prostaglandin E2, and catecholamines have been demonstrated to regulate the innate and acquired immune responses. In this review, we describe one of the mechanisms common to the action of these agonists; the regulation of the expression of ...

Ageing influences detrusor contractions to prostaglandin, angiotensin, histamine and 5-HT (serotonin), independent to the Rho kinase and extracellular calcium pathways

Scientific Reports, 2023
Ageing is associated with deteriorating urinary bladder function and an increasing prevalence of disorders such as underactive bladder. There are suggestions that G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) second messenger pathways are altered during ageing ...

Mirtazapine decreases stimulatory effects of reboxetine on cortisol, adrenocorticotropin and prolactin secretion in healthy male subjects [PDF]

, 2004
Reboxetine is a selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor, whereas mirtazapine acts as an antagonist at noradrenergic alpha(2), serotonin (5-HT2), 5-HT3 and histamine H-1 receptors.

The impact of pitolisant, an H3 receptor antagonist/inverse agonist, on perirhinal cortex activity in individual neuron and neuronal population levels

Scientific Reports, 2022
Histamine is a neurotransmitter that modulates neuronal activity and regulates various brain functions. Histamine H3 receptor (H3R) antagonists/inverse agonists enhance its release in most brain regions, including the cerebral cortex, which improves ...

Pepducins as a potential treatment strategy for asthma and COPD. [PDF]

, 2018
Current therapies to treat asthma and other airway diseases primarily include anti-inflammatory agents and bronchodilators. Anti-inflammatory agents target trafficking and resident immunocytes and structural cells, while bronchodilators act to prevent or
