We studied the effects of the histamine H1 receptor antagonists diphenhydramine and pyrilamine, the H2 receptor antagonist ranitidine and the muscarinic receptor antagonist atropine injected into the third cerebral ventricle on prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha)-induced hyperglycemia in anesthetized fed rats. The concomitant injection of diphenhydramine (1 x 10(-8), 5 x 10(-8) mol) with 50 micrograms PGF2 alpha significantly suppressed the increase in hepatic plasma glucose concentrations induced by PGF2 alpha. The concomitant injection of 1 x 10(-8) mol pyrilamine with 50 micrograms PGF2 alpha did not suppress the above-mentioned parameter, while 5 x 10(-8) mol pyrilamine significantly suppressed it. Diphenhydramine suppressed the PGF2 alpha-induced hyperglycemia to a greater extent than did pyrilamine. In contrast, concomitant injection of the H2 receptor antagonist ranitidine (1 x 10(-8), 5 x 10(-8) mol) did not suppress the hyperglycemia induced by PGF2 alpha. The concomitant injection of 5 x 10(-8) mol diphenhydramine or pyrilamine with 50 micrograms PGF2 alpha significantly suppressed the increase in plasma epinephrine induced by PGF2 alpha, but the same dose of ranitidine had no effect. The concomitant injection of atropine (5 x 10(-8), 5 x 10(-7) mol) with 50 micrograms PGF2 alpha significantly suppressed the increase in hepatic plasma glucose and epinephrine induced by PGF2 alpha. These findings demonstrate that PGF2 alpha-induced hyperglycemia is mediated by the muscarinic receptors of cholinoceptive neurons and in part by H1 receptors in the central nervous system.

D011976 Receptors, Muscarinic One of the two major classes of cholinergic receptors. Muscarinic receptors were originally defined by their preference for MUSCARINE over NICOTINE. There are several subtypes (usually M1, M2, M3....) that are characterized by their cellular actions, pharmacology, and molecular biology.

D004155 Diphenhydramine A histamine H1 antagonist used as an antiemetic, antitussive, for dermatoses and pruritus, for hypersensitivity reactions, as a hypnotic, an antiparkinson, and as an ingredient in common cold preparations. It has some undesired antimuscarinic and sedative effects.

D006634 Histamine H1 Antagonists Drugs that selectively bind to but do not activate histamine H1 receptors, thereby blocking the actions of endogenous histamine. Included here are the classical antihistaminics that antagonize or prevent the action of histamine mainly in immediate hypersensitivity. They act in the bronchi, capillaries, and some other smooth muscles, and are used to prevent or allay motion sickness, seasonal rhinitis, and allergic dermatitis and to induce somnolence. The effects of blocking central nervous system H1 receptors are not as well understood.
