Abstract: | Histamine and relatively selective H1- and H2-receptor agonists caused a concentration-dependent increase in the fractional outflow of radioactivity from the rat isolated vas deferens preloaded with labelled noradrenaline. The evoked fractional outflow of radioactivity was not preferentially associated with either H1- or H2-selective agonists, nor was it related to the known potencies of the agonists within each group. The evoked fractional outflow caused by all compounds studied was independent of the extracellular Ca2+ concentration. The study cautions against ascribing all the effects of histamine analogs to their respective histamine receptor stimulation. |
