pubmed:abstractText |
In urethane-anaesthetised rats, the administration of the specific histamine H2-receptor antagonist metiamide intracerebroventricularly (i.c.v.) raised the blood pressure and increased the heart rate. Metiamide (i.c.v.) antagonised the hypotensive effect of clonidine (i.c.v.) in an apparently competitive manner. 4-Methylhistamine i.c.v. did not significantly change the blood pressure. The results are consistent with the concept that the hypotensive effect of clonidine is at least partly due to a stimulation of cerebral H2-receptors. The existence of cerebral H2-receptors mediating hypotensive effects is supported by the hypertensive effect of metiamide but not by the lack of hypotensive effects of 4-methylhistamine.
