We investigated the effect of cimetidine and histamine on splanchnic circulation in the dogs. Hepatic artery, superior mesenteric artery and portal vein were cannulated to measure each blood pressure. Each blood flow was evaluated utilizing electromagnetic blood flowmetry. And vascular resistances were calculated by measured blood pressure and blood flow. Cimetidine, histamine, 2-PEA (H1-agonist), dimaprit (H2-agonist) and mepyramine maleate (H1-antagonist) were given by intravenous bolus to the dogs. Histamine caused vasodilation of hepatic artery but vasoconstriction of superior mesenteric artery and these effects were similar to the effect of 2-PEA. These hemodynamic responses to histamine were inhibited by H1-antagonist but not inhibited by H2-antagonist. Cimetidine produced dilatation of hepatic artery but constriction of portal vein, superior mesenteric artery and reduced total hepatic blood flow. These effects were not inhibited by H1-antagonist. We concluded that cimetidine did not stimulated H1, H2-receptors rather than had the own effects and that H1-receptor was superior to H2-receptor on splanchnic circulation in the dogs.

D011969 Receptors, Histamine H1 A class of histamine receptors discriminated by their pharmacology and mode of action. Most histamine H1 receptors operate through the inositol phosphate/diacylglycerol second messenger system. Among the many responses mediated by these receptors are smooth muscle contraction, increased vascular permeability, hormone release, and cerebral glyconeogenesis.

D002927 Cimetidine A histamine congener, it competitively inhibits HISTAMINE binding to HISTAMINE H2 RECEPTORS. Cimetidine has a range of pharmacological actions. It inhibits GASTRIC ACID secretion, as well as PEPSIN and GASTRIN output.

D006632 Histamine An amine derived by enzymatic decarboxylation of HISTIDINE. It is a powerful stimulant of gastric secretion, a constrictor of bronchial smooth muscle, a vasodilator, and also a centrally acting neurotransmitter. Ceplene,Histamine Dihydrochloride,Histamine Hydrochloride,Peremin
D006635 Histamine H2 Antagonists Drugs that selectively bind to but do not activate histamine H2 receptors, thereby blocking the actions of histamine. Their clinically most important action is the inhibition of acid secretion in the treatment of gastrointestinal ulcers. Smooth muscle may also be affected. Some drugs in this class have strong effects in the central nervous system, but these actions are not well understood.
