Antagonist Comments
Astemizole is highly selective for the histamine H1 receptor over the H2 receptor.
Immunopharmacology Comments
The H1 receptor was the first of the family to be targeted for clinical use, with antagonists (anti-histamines) developed that are still used widely to treat allergic inflammation such as rhinitis, allergic conjunctivitis, urticaria and even anaphylaxis.

H1 receptor knockout mice develop normally, but exhibit impaired locomotor activity and exploratory behavior.

Technique:  Gene targeting in embryonic stem cells.

H1 receptor knockout mice subjected to social isolation after weaning exhibit similar levels of locomotor activity to socially reared H1 receptor knockout mice. This is in contrast to wild-type mice, where there is a significant decrease in locomotor activity in socially isolated WT mice compared with socially reared WT mice. It is suggested that blockade of H1 receptors by atypical antipsychotics attenuates social isolation-induced behavioral changes.
