background: high levels of histamine and dopamine are found in the hippocampus. furthermore, interaction between histamine and dopaminergic d2 receptors has been demonstrated in the modulation of some behaviors. in the present study, interaction between histamine and dopaminergic d2 receptor in the dorsal hippocampus in the anxiety behavior has been investigated. methods: in this experimental s...

Introduction: The protective and antisecretory effects of dopamine agonists on the stomach have been already reported, but the effect of bromocriptine (D2 dopamine agonist) on histamine stimulated gastric acid secretion (GAS) needs to be investigated. Methods: For gastric sampling, animals were anesthetized and a polyethylen tube was introduced into the stomach through esophagus. A cannula ...

in the present study, the effects of intracerebroventricular (icv) administration of normal saline (control), histamine, mepyramine (a histamine h1-receptor antagonist) and ranitidine (a histamine h2-receptor antagonist) were investigated on the formalin-induced pain in rabbits. subcutaneous (sc) injection of a formalin (100 μl, 5%) solution into the ventral surface of the right hind paw was pe...

Modification of the cardiac rhythm by histamine has been appreciated almost since the compound's isolation from ergot by Barger and Dale in 1910. The major arrhythmogenic actions of histamine are an Hi-receptor-mediated slowing of atriovenrricular (AV) conduction and H2-receptor-mediated increases in sinus rate and ventricular automaticity. These actions were elucidated by observing the salutar...

the present study investigated the effects of intra-dentate gyrus microinjection of naloxone (an opioid antagonist) and thioperamide (an antagonist of histamine h3 receptors) in the formalin test in rats. subcutaneous injection of formalin (50 μl, 2.5 %) in the ventral surface of right hind paw produced a biphasic pattern (first phase: 0-5 min and second phase: 15 - 60 min) of licking/biting an...

in a previous study, the relaxant and anticholinergic (functional antagonism) effects of bunium persicum (b. persicum ) have been demonstrated on guinea pig tracheal chains. to elucidate the other mechanisms responsible for this relaxant effect, the inhibitory effect of this plant on histamine h1 receptors was examined in this study. the antihistaminic effects of aqueous and macerated extracts,...

The aim of this retrospective study was to analyze the concomitant prevalence rates for lactose malabsorption (LM), fructose malabsorption (FM), and histamine intolerance (HI) in patients with so far unexplained gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms. A total of 439 outpatients, who presented unclear abdominal discomfort, underwent lactose (50 g) and fructose (25 g) hydrogen (H2) breath tests. Addition...

Sodium butyrate induces basophilic differentiation of HI60 promyelocytic leukemia cells that have been previously passaged in alkaline medium. A factor present in Mo conditioned medium (Mo-CM) acts synergistically with sodium butyrate to promote basophilic maturation in a dose-dependent fashion. The induced HI-60 cells exhibit nuclei at various stages of maturity and cytoplasmic granules staini...
