항 Histamine쟤의 효과적인 응용과 그 개발율 위한 자료를 얻고자 이들 약물의 H$_1$-receptor와 muscarinic receptor에 대한 작용의 상대적 역가를 비교하였다. 본 실험에 이용된 기니픽 회장에는 [$^3$H]QHB어 대한 단일 muscarinic receptor가 존재하였으며 [$^3$H]QNB의 affinity와 결합부위농도는 각각 54 pM 및 156 fmol/mg이었다. 항 histamine제는 muscarinic receptor에 대한 [$^3$H]QNB결합을 억제하였으며 [$^3$H]QNB 결합억제로부터 추정된 항 histamine제의 Ki치가 0.008$\mu$M-1.6$\mu$M로서 항 histamine제의 종류에 따라 현저한 차이가 있었고, 이 결과는 carbachol 반응억제로부터 추정된 각 항 histamine제의 muscarinic receptor에 대한 affinity(K$_{M}$)와 유사하였다. 한편 histamine수축반응 억제로부터 추정된 항 histamine재의 H$_1$-receptor에 대한 affinity(K$_{H}$ ) 역시 0.15nM-56.5nM로서 약물에 따라 차이가 있었고 각 약물의 $K_{M}$ /K$_{H}$ 비가 3-2300으로 H$_1$-receptor에 대한 역가와 muscarinic receptor에 대한 역가 사이에는 상관성이 없었다. 즉 유사한 항 allergy 작용을 일으킬 수 있는 치료혈중농도에서도 muscarinic receptor 차단작용이 다르며 본 실험에 사용한 13종의 기존 항 histamine제중 triprolidine이 $K_{M}$ /K$_{H}$ 비가 가장 높았고 diphenidol이 가장 낮았다. 이상의 결과로 보아 항 histamine제의 muscarinic receptor 차단작용은 이들 약물의 항 alleragy 효과에 필요한 작용이 아니며 본 실험에서 추정된 항 histamine제의 H$_1$-receptor와 muscarinic receptor에 대한 상대적 역가는 이들 약물의 선택과 평가에 중요한 지표가 될수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

The effects of histamine were investigated on the uterine smooth muscle motility in the pig. The results were summarized as fellows : 1. Histamine caused the contraction of the porcine uterine smooth muscle and the contractile responses increased between the concetration of histamine $10^{-8}$ and $10^{-5}$ M with a dose-dependent manner. 2. The contractile response Induced by histamine ($10^{-6}$ M) was completely blocked by pretrevatment with $H_1$-histaminergic receptor blocker, pyrilamine($10^{-6}$ M) 3. The contractile response induced by histamine($10^{-6}$ M) was increased by pretreatment with $H_2$-histaminergic receptor blocker, cimetidine($10^{-6}$ M) From these results, it was concluded that the effects of uterine smooth muscle by histamine were the contraction mediated by $H_1$-histaminergic receptor and the relaxation mediated by $H_2$-histaminergic receptor in pig.

To validate the physiological properties of the histamine receptors of ileal smooth muscle in dog, the effects of adrenergic-, cholineric-, and H-receptor antagonists on the responses of ileal smooth muscle strips to histamine were investigated. The results were summarized as follows; 1. Histamine caused the contraction of ileal smooth muscle and the contractile responses were increased between the concentration of histamine $10^{-7}M$ and $10^{-5}M$ with dose-dependent manner in dog. 2. The shorter the treatment interval of histamine, the lower the contractile activity until the treatment interval extended to 40 minutes. 3. The contractile response induced by histamine was completely blocked by the pre treatment with a $H_1$-receptor blocker, chlorpheniramine and not by the pretreatment with a $H_2$-receptor blockers cimetidine. 4. The contractile response induced by histamine was not blocked by the pretreatment with a cholinergic receptor blocker, atropine. 5. The contractile response induced by histamine was not blocked by the pretreatment with an ${\alpha}$-adrenergic receptor blocker, phenoxybenzamine, or a ${\beta}$-adrenergic receptor blocker, propranolol. From these results, it was suggested that the contraction induced by histamine was elicited through $H_1$-receptor on the ileal smooth muscle in dog.

The effects of histamine on contraction of rabbit taenia coli were studied. The results obtained were as follows: 1) The contractile response to histamine was appeared at the concentration of $10^{-7}M$ and increased in a dose-dependent manner to the concentration of $10^{-4}M$. 2) The magnitude of the histamine-induced contractile response was declined during short-term exposure in rabbit taenia coli. After 40-min exposure to histamine, the contractile response did not altered. 3) Histamine-induced contraction was not influenced by hexamethonium$(10^{-4}M)$, propranolol$(10^{-4}M)$ and phenoxybenzamine$(10^{-6}M)$. 4) $H_1-receptor$ blockade such as chlorpheniramine$(10^{-6}M)$ and pyrilamine$(10^{-6}M)$ completely abolished the response of the taenia coli to exogenous histamine, while $H_2-receptor$ blockade (cimetidine, $10^{-6}M$) did not alter. 5) After the treatment of verapamil the histamine-induced contraction was significantly inhibited, but in the treatment of 2 mM $La^{3+}$ it was not influenced. 6) In the absence of $Ca^{2+}$, histamine induced contraction in the different manner of acetylcholine. When taenia coli war treated with atropine$(10^{-6}M)$ which was completely blocked the contraction by acetylcholine$(10^{-4}M)$, histamine-induced contraction was not altered. These results suggest that in the rabbit taenia coli exogenous histamine induced contraction through $H_1$-receptor, but not through the mechanism of acetylcholine.

The possible roles of spinal histamine receptors in the regulation of the blood glucose level were studied in ICR mice. Mice were intrathecally (i.t.) treated with histamine 1 (H1) receptor agonist (2-pyridylethylamine) or antagonist (cetirizine), histamine 2 (H2) receptor agonist (dimaprit) or antagonist (ranitidine), histamine 3 (H3) receptor agonist (${\alpha}$-methylhistamine) or antagonist (carcinine) and histamine 4 (H4) receptor agonist (VUF 8430) or antagonist (JNJ 7777120), and the blood glucose level was measured at 30, 60 and 120 min after i.t. administration. The i.t. injection with ${\alpha}$-methylhistamine, but not carcinine slightly caused an elevation of the blood glucose level. In addition, histamine H1, H2, and H4 receptor agonists and antagonists did not affect the blood glucose level. In D-glucose-fed model, i.t. pretreatment with cetirizine enhanced the blood glucose level, whereas 2-pyridylethylamine did not affect. The i.t. pretreatment with dimaprit, but not ranitidine, enhanced the blood glucose level in D-glucose-fed model. In addition, ${\alpha}$-methylhistamine, but not carcinine, slightly but significantly enhanced the blood glucose level D-glucose-fed model. Finally, i.t. pretreatment with JNJ 7777120, but not VUF 8430, slightly but significantly increased the blood glucose level. Although histamine receptors themselves located at the spinal cord do not exert any effect on the regulation of the blood glucose level, our results suggest that the activation of spinal histamine H2 receptors and the blockade of spinal histamine H1 or H3 receptors may play modulatory roles for up-regulation and down-regulation, respectively, of the blood glucose level in D-glucose fed model.

The antihistaminic action of eighteen herbal medicines was investigated by the radioligand binding and functional assays. The hexane fractions of Trichosanthis radix, Mori cortex radicis and Evodiae fructus dosedependently inhibited [$^3$H] mepyramine binding to H$_1$, receptor in guinea-pig brain homogenates and histamine-induced contraction of isolated guinea-pig ileum. Antihistaminic action of the hexane and ethyl acetate fractions of Mori cortex radicis and the hexane fraction of Evodiae fructus was more potent than their antimuscarinic action evaluated from the inhibition of [$^3$H]QNB binding and carbachol response. The ethyl acetate and chloroform fractions from Scutellariae radix also inhibited histamine-induced contraction, but antihistaminic potencies of these fractions were almost identical with their antimuscarinic potencies. The hexane fractions of Mori cortex radicis and Evodiae fructus inhibited selectively the increase of histamine-induced cutaneous vascular Permeability in the rat dorsal skins. However, the ethyl acetate fraction from Scutellariae radix inhibited eqipotently the effects of histamine and serotonin on the vascular permeability. These results demonstrate that the hexane and ethyl acetate fractions of Mori cortex radicis and the hexane fraction of Evodiae fructus have the selective histamine H$_1$receptor blocking activity.

The affinity of mequitazine, a non-sedating antihistamine, for muscarinic receptors was evaluated in the guinea-pig ventricle and ileum by in vitro binding techniques and functional studies. In binding studies, [$^3$H]quinuclidinyl benzilate (QNB) identified a single class of muscarinic receptors with similar apparent $K_{D}$ value of about 100 pM in two tissues. Mequitazine inhibited [$^3$H]QNB binding to muscarinic receptors competitively. Analysis of the mequitazine inhibition curve of [$^3$H]QNB binding to ventricular microsome and ileal homogenate indicated the presence of a single homogeneous binding site with Ki value of 25 nM and 18 nM, respectively. In functional studies, mequitazine caused parallel rightward shifts of concentration-response curves for carbachol and histamine in the isolated guinea-pig ileum. The slope values obtained from Schild plot analysis for the antagonistic action of mequitazine on muscarinic and histamine $H_1$-receptors were not significantly different from unity. The p $A_2$values of mequitazine for muscarinic and histamine $H_1$-receptors were about 7.6 ( $K_{M}$= 25.1 nM) and 8.88 ( $K_{H}$= 1.32 nM), respectively. These results indicate that the muscarinic receptor blocking action of mequitazine is 15 times less potent than the $H_1$receptor blocking action, but high concentration of this drug may cause the peripheral muscarinic receptor blocking effect.t.t.t.

$Mg^{2+}$ is an important regulator of many cardiac functions. However, regulation of intracellular $Mg^{2+}$ activity in the heart is not well characterized. To assess the effect of histamine $H_2$-receptor stimulation on intracellular $Mg^{2+}$ regulation, changes in extracellular $Mg^{2+}$ concentration were examined under a variety of conditions in perfused guinea pig hearts. $Mg^{2+}$ in the cardiac perfusate was measured by atomic absorbance spectrophotometry. The histamine ($10^{-6}$ M) inuced a marked $Mg^{2+}$ efflux from the heart. The $H_2$-receptor antagonists, cimetidine ($10^{-6}$ M), ranitidined ($10^{-5}$ M), but not a H1-receptor antagonist, diphenhydramine ($3{\times}10^{-6}$ M), completely blocked the histamine-induced $Mg^{2+}$ efflux. The $Mg^{2+}$ efflux could also be induced by forskolin ($3{\times}10^{-6}$ M), 8-Cl-cAMP ($2{\times}10^{-4}$ M), permeable cAMP analogue, or dimaprit, ($10^{-5}$ M). However, the carbachol ($10^{-5}$ M) considerably decreased the efflux of $Mg^{2+}$. In the presence of papaverine ($10^{-5}$ M), a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, dimaprit-induced $Mg^{2+}$ efflux was potentiated. These results suggest that a significant $Mg^{2+}$ efflux from perfused guinea pig heart by histamine can be induced by the histamine $H_2$-receptor stimulation and it is suggested that cytosolic cAMP may be linked.

It has been shown that there are several subtypes of $\kappa$ opioid receptor, We have evaluated the properties of non-${\mu}$, non-$\delta$ binding of 〔$^3$H〕DIP, a nonselective opioid antagonist, in rat cortex membranes. Binding to ${\mu}$ and $\delta$ sites was inhibited by the use of an excess of competing selective agonists (DAMGO, DPDPE) for these sites. (-)Ethylketocyclazocine(EKC) inhibited 〔$^3$H〕DIP binding with Ki. of 70 nM. However, arylacetamides (U69593 and U50488H) gave little inhibition. Also, we have examined the opioid modulation of K$\^$+/(30 mM)-induced histamine release in rat frontal cortex slices labeled with 1-〔$^3$H〕histidine. The 〔$^3$H〕histamine release from cortex slices was inhibited by EKC, a $\kappa$$_1$-and $\kappa$$_2$-agonist, in a concentration-dependent manner(10 to 10,000 nM). The IC$\sub$50/ of EKC was 107 ${\pm}$ 6 nM. However, the $\delta$ receptor selective agonists, DPDPE and deltorphine II, ${\mu}$ receptor agonists, DAMGO and TAPS, $\kappa$$_1$-agonists, U69593 and U50488H, and $\varepsilon$-agonist, ${\beta}$-endorphin, did not inhibit histamine release even in micromoiar dose, indicating that ${\mu}$, $\delta$ or $\kappa$$_1$ receptors are not involved. The concentration-response curve of EKC was shifted to right in the presence of naloxone (300 nM), a ${\mu}$ preferential antagonist, norbinaltorphimine(300 nM), a $\kappa$$_1$ preferential antagonist and bremazocine(1 nM), a $\kappa$$_1$-agonist and $\kappa$$_2$-antagonist. These results suggest that $\kappa$$_2$ opioid receptor regulates histamine release in the frontal cortex of the rat.
