Abstract
The effect of the histamine H3 receptor agonist (R) alpha-methylhistamine on duodenal bicarbonate secretion was investigated in the anaesthetized rat. (R) alpha-methylhistamine (3-30 mumol/kg i.v.) caused a dose-dependent increase in alkaline secretion which was completely blocked by the H3 receptor antagonist clobenpropit (3 mumol/kg i.v.). This antagonist caused a slight reduction (19%) of the secretory response to PGE2 50 micrograms/kg i.v. These data indicate that the alkaline response to (R) alpha-methylhistamine is related to the activation of histamine H3 receptors and suggest that this could be an additional mechanism involved in the previously observed gastroprotective effect of this compound.
