Histamine (HA) acts as a neurotransmitter in the brain, influencing emotion, cognition, and feeding. Discoveries of histamine H3 receptor isoforms and the H4 receptor are driving therapeutic development.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Pharmacology

Background:

  • Histamine (HA) is increasingly recognized for its roles as a neurotransmitter and neuromodulator in brain functions.
  • These functions include emotion, cognition, and feeding behaviors.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review recent discoveries concerning histamine receptors.
  • To discuss the histamine H3 receptor as a therapeutic target.

Main Methods:

  • Cloning of histamine H3 receptor and its isoforms from various species.
  • Cloning of the histamine H4 receptor.
  • Analysis of differential brain expression patterns and signaling properties of H3 receptor isoforms.

Main Results:

  • Identification of multiple histamine H3 receptor isoforms with distinct expression and signaling profiles.
