Histamine H2 receptors on foetal-bovine articular chondrocytes.

Abstract

The dose-response curve of histamine-induced cyclic AMP elevation in monolayer cultures of primary foetal-bovine articular chondrocytes was displaced to the right by cimetidine. In addition, H2 but not H1 antagonists prevented the histamine-induced cyclic AMP elevation, suggesting histamine activates chondrocyte adenylate cyclase through an H2 receptor.
