Investigation of the Binding Characteristics of Agonists and Various Antagonists Targeting Histamine 1 Receptor.
Article in Pharmaceutical research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveThe histamine H1 receptor (H1R) plays a central role in mediating allergic responses, making it a critical target for therapeutic intervention. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying drug binding to H1R remain incompletely elucidated.
methodsWe employed an integrated approach combining site-directed mutagenesis, cell membrane chromatography (CMC) and pharmacological activity assays to systematically characterize the binding mechanisms of H1R agonists and antagonists. We constructed various H1R/CMC systems using high-expression H1R cells (wild type, TM3, TM5, TM6, and ECL2 mutants) and evaluated the binding affinities of three agonists (histamine, HTMT, betahistine) and three classes of antagonists (ethylenediamine/propanamine, tricyclic, piperidine derivatives).
resultsOur findings reveal distinct agonist binding preferences: histamine primarily targets TM3, HTMT interacts with TM5, and betahistine shows a strong preference for TM6. Among antagonists, ethylenediamine/propanamine and piperidine classes predominantly block TM3 and TM6 regions, while tricyclic antagonists additionally depend on TM5 region for their inhibitory effects. Pharmacological validation through phospholipase C (PLC) activity assays corroborated these results, demonstrating that mutations in specific transmembrane domains significantly alter agonist-induced signaling and antagonist-mediated efficacy.
conclusionThese mechanistic insights into H1R ligand binding provide a structural foundation for the rational design of targeted therapies with improved selectivity and efficacy against allergic disorders.
