receptors, histamine
Cell-surface proteins that bind histamine and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behaviour of cells. Histamine receptors are widespread in the central nervous system and in peripheral tissues. Three types have been recognised and designated h1, h2, and h3. They differ in pharmacology, distribution, and mode of action.
