We previously reported that the activation of histamine H3 receptors (H3Rs) selectively counteracts the facilitatory action of adenosine A2A receptors (A2ARs) on GABA release from rat globus pallidus (GP) isolated nerve terminals (synaptosomes). In this work, we examined the mechanisms

The histamine H3 receptor is an attractive G protein-coupled receptor drug target that regulates neurotransmission in the central nervous system and plays a crucial role in cognitive and homeostatic functions. This receptor exhibits molecular, pharmacological, and functional heterogeneity that affects

Histamine H3 receptors (H3Rs) are co-expressed with dopamine D1 receptors (D1Rs) by striato-nigral medium spiny GABAergic neurons, where they functionally antagonize D1R-mediated responses. We examined whether the chronic administration of the H3R agonist immepip modifies dyskinesias induced by L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, L-Dopa

Reuptake and clearance of released serotonin (5-HT) are critical in serotonergic neurotransmission. Serotonin transporter (SERT) is mainly responsible for clearing the extracellular 5-HT. Controlled trafficking, phosphorylation, and protein stability have been attributed to robust SERT activity. H3 histamine receptors (H3Rs)

The histamine H3 receptor (H3R) is abundantly expressed in the Central Nervous System where it regulates several functions pre and postsynaptically. H3Rs couple to Gαi/o proteins and trigger or modulate several intracellular signaling pathways, including the cAMP/PKA pathway and the
