Thioperamide, antagonist of histamine H3 receptors, increases brain production of kynurenic acid
Brain histamine plays the role of neuromodulator and neurotransmitter in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. Kynurenic acid (KYNA) is an antagonist of the glycine site within the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor complex, and of nicotinic α7 receptors in the brain of mammals. Here, we report that thioperamide, H3 receptor antagonist/inverse agonist is capable of increasing...
متن کاملSustained focal cortical compression reduces electrically-induced seizure threshold.
Brain injury can often result in the subsequent appearance of seizures, suggesting an alteration in neural excitability associated with the balance between neuronal excitation and inhibition. The process by which this occurs has yet to be fully elucidated. The specific nature of the changes in excitation and inhibition is still unclear, as is the process by which the seizures appear following i...
متن کاملThe role of central endogenous histamine and H1, H2 and H3 receptors on food intake in broiler chickens
The role of endogenous histamine and H1, H2 and H3 central receptors on food intake in broiler chickenswas investigated. For this purpose, a probe was used to manipulate the concentration of endogenoushistamine by intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of thioperamide, an H3 receptor antagonist, and R-α-methylhistamine, an H3 receptor agonist and subsequently the effects of brain histaminergic...
متن کاملاثر آگونیست ها و آنتاگونیست های مختلف گیرنده هیستامینی بر آستانه درد ایجاد شده با صفحه داغ و Writhing شکمی در موش ها
Background and purpose: Histamine is a neurotransmitter present in the brain of mammals which produces its physiological effects on target cells by stimulation of three types of receptors H1, H2 and H3. Various reports nowadays indicate the role of histamine in reduction of pain transmission. This study was designed to determine the role of histamine receptors in reduction of pain. Mate...
متن کاملThioperamide-induced Antinociception is Mediated through Endogenous Opioid System in the Dentate Gyrus of Adult Rats
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...
