Swiss-Prot Acc.Q9Y5N1.The H3 subclass of histamine receptors could mediate the histamine signals in CNS and peripheral nervous system. Signals through the inhibition of adenylate cyclase and displays high constitutive activity (spontaneous activity in the absence of agonist). Agonist stimulation of isoform 3 neither modified adenylate cyclase activity nor induced intracellular calcium mobilization.MiscellaneousDoes not bind to cimetidine and tripolidine. Shows modest affinity for thioperamide, imetit, N-alpha-methylhistamine and R--alpha-methylhistamine. Isoform 4 is unable to bind to iodoproxyfan while isoforms 1 and 3 bind it with high affinity.
