title: The histamine H3 receptor: a general presynaptic histaminergic regulatory system?
abstract: The histamine H3 receptors were initially identified as presynaptic autoreceptors in the brain. However, recent research described here by Jan van der Werf and Hendrik Timmerman demonstrates that H3 receptors are associated with multiple functions, and their location is not confined to the CNS.
