Histamine H1‐receptor‐mediated modulation of NMDA receptors signaling responses
This study attempted to clarify the role of histamine H1 receptors in epilepsy by exploring the effects of agonists and inverse agonists on the rundown of the current induced by iterative applications of NMDA or GABA in primary neuronal culture ...

Steroid Receptors and Vertebrate Evolution [PDF]
Considering that life on earth evolved about 3.7 billion years ago, vertebrates are young, appearing in the fossil record during the Cambrian explosion about 542 to 515 million years ago. Results from sequence analyses of genomes from bacteria, yeast, plants, invertebrates and vertebrates indicate that receptors for adrenal steroids (aldosterone ...

The Effects of Histamine H3 Receptors on Contractile Responses on Rat Gastric Fundus [PDF]
The aim of this study is to determine the effects of histamine receptors on the gastrointestinal system smooth muscle contractions and the role of histamine H3 receptors on these effects.

The role of atrial natriuretic peptide to attenuate inflammation in a mouse skin wound and individually perfused rat mesenteric microvessels. [PDF]
We tested the hypothesis that the anti-inflammatory actions of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) result from the modulation of leukocyte adhesion to inflamed endothelium and not solely ANP ligation of endothelial receptors to stabilize endothelial barrier

Breaking Boundaries: Chronic Diseases and the Frontiers of Immune Microenvironments
ABSTRACT The immune microenvironment includes immune cells, cytokines, extracellular matrix, vesicles, etc. The interactions between these components form a unique local immune microecology. Although immunity serves as the defense against external pathogens, aberrant immune activation often contributes to disease development.

Although it is well known that histamine induces gastric mucosal lesions in laboratory animals, the fundamental mechanisms remain unclear. In order to further analyze the vascular mechanisms underlying histamine-induced lesions, a new model was developed

Histamine enhances ATP-induced itching and responsiveness to ATP in keratinocytes
Mechanical stimulation of cultured keratinocytes and a living epidermis increases intracellular calcium ion concentrations ([Ca2+]i) in stimulated cells. This action propagates a Ca2+ wave to neighboring keratinocytes via ATP/P2Y2 receptors.

Activation of Microglia by Histamine and Substance P
Background: Activated microglia perform many of the immune effector functions typically associated with macrophages. However, the regulators involved in microglial activation are not well defined.

Selective inhibition of histamine-evoked Ca2+ signals by compartmentalized cAMP in human bronchial airway smooth muscle cells. [PDF]
Intracellular Ca2+ and cAMP typically cause opposing effects on airway smooth muscle contraction. Receptors that stimulate these pathways are therapeutic targets in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
