The effects of intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) injection of histamine, the H1 agonist 2-methyl-histamine and the H2 agonist dimaprit were tested on carrageenin induced hyperalgesia by the Randall-Selitto paw pressure test in the rat. Treatment with histamine (0.1, 0.2, 0.4 mumol/rat, i.c.v.) 150 min after intraplantar carrageenin (0.1 ml of 1% solution) caused a significant increase of paw pressure thresholds in inflamed (but not in non-inflamed) paws. The magnitude and the duration of the antinociceptive effects of histamine were dose-dependent. Administration of 2-methyl-histamine (0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.0 mumol/rat, i.c.v.) and dimaprit (0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.8 mumol/rat, i.c.v.) also displayed dose-dependent blockade of carrageenin-induced hyperalgesia. Antinociceptive ED50 values calculated 30 min after drug treatments were: histamine 0.18 mumol/rat; 2-methyl-histamine 0.65 mumol/rat; dimaprit 0.33 mumol/rat. These data indicate that histamine through central H1 and H2 receptors exerts an inhibitory role in the control of nociception in pain resulting from inflammation.
