Effects of methimepip and JNJ-5207852 in Wistar rats exposed to an open-field with and without object and in Balb/c mice exposed to a radial-arm maze [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The role of the histamine H3 receptor (H3R) in anxiety is controversial, due to limitations in drug selectivity and limited validity of behavioral tests used in previous studies. In the present report, we describe two experiments.

Effects of First- and Second-Generation Histamine-H1-Receptor Antagonists on the Pentobarbital-Induced Loss of the Righting Reflex in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Mice

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2005
The second-generation histamine-H1-receptor antagonists, such as epinastine and cetirizine, are used as non-sedating antihistamines for treating allergic symptoms due to their poor ability to penetrate blood-brain barrier.

Votucalis, a Novel Centrally Sparing Histamine-Binding Protein, Attenuates Histaminergic Itch and Neuropathic Pain in Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Votucalis is a biologically active protein in tick (R. appendiculatus) saliva, which specifically binds histamine with high affinity and, therefore, has the potential to inhibit the host’s immunological responses at the feeding site. We hypothesized that

Influence of mirtazapine on salivary cortisol in depressed patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Unlike other antidepressants, mirtazapine does not inhibit the reuptake of norepinephrine or serotonin but acts as an antagonist at presynaptic alpha(2)-receptors, at postsynaptic 5-HT2 and 5-HT3 receptors, and at histaminergic H1 receptors. Furthermore,

Neuropharmacological targets for drug action in vestibular sensory pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The use of pharmacological agents is often the preferred approach to the management of vestibular dysfunction. In the vestibular sensory pathways, the sensory neuroepithelia are thought to be influenced by a diverse number of neuroactive substances that ...

Pitolisant and Other Histamine-3 Receptor Antagonists—An Update on Therapeutic Potentials and Clinical Prospects

open access: yesMedicines, 2020
Background: Besides its well-known role as a peripheral chemical mediator of immune, vascular, and cellular responses, histamine plays major roles in the central nervous system, particularly in the mediation of arousal and cognition-enhancement.

Sleep-wake sensitive mechanisms of adenosine release in the basal forebrain of rodents : an in vitro study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Adenosine acting in the basal forebrain is a key mediator of sleep homeostasis. Extracellular adenosine concentrations increase during wakefulness, especially during prolonged wakefulness and lead to increased sleep pressure and subsequent rebound sleep.
