alpha-methylhistamine and Asthma

alpha-methylhistamine has been researched along with Asthma in 5 studies

alpha-methylhistamine: a histamine H3 receptor agonist; RN given refers to parent cpd without isomeric designation
alpha-methylhistamine : An aralkylamino compound that is histamine bearing a methyl substituent at the alpha-position.

Asthma: A form of bronchial disorder with three distinct components: airway hyper-responsiveness (RESPIRATORY HYPERSENSITIVITY), airway INFLAMMATION, and intermittent AIRWAY OBSTRUCTION. It is characterized by spasmodic contraction of airway smooth muscle, WHEEZING, and dyspnea (DYSPNEA, PAROXYSMAL).

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Since neural bronchoconstriction may be important in asthma we have studied the effect of a specific H3-receptor agonist R-alpha-methylhistamine (alpha MeHA) on bronchoconstriction induced by the inhaled irritant sodium metabisulphite (MBS) in six mild asthmatic subjects in a randomised double-blind crossover study."5.07Effect of an inhaled histamine H3-receptor agonist on airway responses to sodium metabisulphite in asthma. ( Barnes, PJ; Lecomte, JM; O'Connor, BJ, 1993)
"To investigate the effect of selective H3 receptor agonist(R)-alpha-methylhistamine and antagonist thioperamide on the respiratory response in asthmatic guinea pigs respectively."3.73[The effect of central histamine H3 receptor on breathing activity of asthmatic guinea pigs]. ( Dong, R; Lu, BS; Zhang, M, 2006)
"High levels of histamine can be found in the airways of asthma patients."3.70Histamine affects interleukin-4, interleukin-5, and interferon-gamma production by human T cell clones from the airways and blood. ( Bast, A; Bruinier, B; Hol, BE; Jansen, HM; Krouwels, FH; Lutter, R; Out, TA, 1998)
