Histamine H₂ receptor signaling × environment interactions determine susceptibility to experimental allergic encephalomyelitis.

Abstract excerpt

Histamine and its receptors are important in both multiple sclerosis and experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE). C57BL/6J (B6) mice deficient for the histamine H2 receptor (H2RKO) are less susceptible to EAE and exhibit blunted Th1 responses. However, whether decreased antigen-specific T-cell effector responses in H2RKO mice were due to a lack of H2R signaling in CD4(+) T cells or antigen-presenting cells...
