Application

Thioperamide maleate salt was used to study the sympathetic and autonomic nerve activity in mammalian white adipose tissue.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Potent and selective H3 histamine receptor antagonist that crosses the blood-brain barrier.
Thioperamide is a potent and selective H3 histamine receptor antagonist that crosses the blood-brain barrier. It affects the central histaminergic system and decreases the duration of seizures and convulsions in mice. It also improves learning deficit induced by other drugs such as scopolamine.

We examined the effects of thioperamide and (R)-alpha-methylhistamine, a histamine H3-receptor antagonist and an agonist, respectively, on a scopolamine-induced learning deficit using an elevated plus-maze test in mice. Thioperamide alone slightly improved the learning deficit induced by scopolamine, and pretreatment

Previously, we showed that l-carnosine, a bioactive dipeptide, influences the sympathetic nerve activity innervating kidney and brown adipose tissue. Because the autonomic nervous system plays an important role in the regulation of lipid metabolism, we investigated the in vivo effects

Previously, we showed that orexin-A, a 33-aa peptide, influences renal sympathetic nerve activity. Because the autonomic nervous system plays an important role in the regulation of lipid metabolism, we investigated the in vivo effects of orexin-A on the sympathetic nerve

European journal of pharmacology, 234(1), 129-133 (1993-03-30)
The effect of thioperamide, a histamine H3 receptor antagonist, on electrically induced convulsions was studied in mice. Thioperamide significantly and dose dependently decreased the duration of each phase of convulsion and raised the electroconvulsive threshold. Its anticonvulsant effects were prevented
