Ligand-guided homology modeling drives identification of novel histamine H3 receptor ligands. [PDF]
In this study, we report a ligand-guided homology modeling approach allowing the analysis of relevant binding site residue conformations and the identification of two novel histamine H3 receptor ligands with binding affinity in the nanomolar range.

Kv4.2 mediates histamine modulation of preoptic neuron activity and body temperature. [PDF]
Histamine regulates arousal, circadian rhythms, and thermoregulation. Activation of H3 histamine receptors expressed by preoptic GABAergic neurons results in a decrease of their firing rate and hyperthermia.

Calyx and dimorphic neurons of mouse Scarpa's ganglion express histamine H3 receptors [PDF]
Background Histamine-related drugs are commonly used in the treatment of vertigo and related vestibular disorders. The site of action of these drugs however has not been elucidated yet.

The Histamine H3 Receptor: Structure, Pharmacology, and Function [PDF]
Among the four G protein-coupled receptors (H1-H4) identified as mediators of the biologic effects of histamine, the H3 receptor (H3R) is distinguished for its almost exclusive expression in the nervous system and the large variety of isoforms generated by alternative splicing of the corresponding mRNA.

The evidence for histamine H3 receptor-mediated endothelium-dependent relaxation in isolated rat aorta [PDF]
The presence of histamine H3 receptors was evaluated on the rat aorta endothelium. In the presence of pyrilamine (1 nM, 7 nM, 10 nM) or thioperamide (1 nM, 10 nM, 30 nM) the concentration–response curve for histamine-induced (0.1 nM − 0.01 mM ...

Changes in Histamine Receptors (H1, H2, and H3) Expression in Rat Medial Vestibular Nucleus and Flocculus after Unilateral Labyrinthectomy: Histamine Receptors in Vestibular Compensation. [PDF]
Vestibular compensation is the process of behavioral recovery following peripheral vestibular lesion. In clinics, the histaminergic medicine is the most widely prescribed for the treatment of vertigo and motion sickness, however, the molecular mechanisms

Multiple Targeting Approaches on Histamine H3 Receptor Antagonists
With the very recent market approval of pitolisant (Wakix®), the interest in clinical applications of novel multifunctional histamine H3 receptor antagonists has clearly increased. Since histamine H3 receptor antagonists in clinical development have been

Role of histamine H3 receptor in glucagon‐secreting αTC1.6 cells [PDF]
Pancreatic α‐cells secrete glucagon to maintain energy homeostasis. Although histamine has an important role in energy homeostasis, the expression and function of histamine receptors in pancreatic α‐cells remains unknown.
