Activation of carbonic anhydrase isoforms involved in modulation of emotional memory and cognitive disorders with histamine agonists, antagonists and derivatives

Carbonic anhydrases (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) activators were shown to be involved in memory enhancement and learning in animal models of cognition. Here we investigated the CA activating effects of a large series of histamine based compounds, including histamine receptors (H1R - H4R) agonists, antagonists...

Description
Summary:Carbonic anhydrases (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) activators were shown to be involved in memory enhancement and learning in animal models of cognition. Here we investigated the CA activating effects of a large series of histamine based compounds, including histamine receptors (H1R - H4R) agonists, antagonists and other derivatives of this autacoid. CA activators may be thus useful for improving cognition as well as in diverse therapeutic areas (phobias, obsessive-compulsive disorder, generalised anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorders), for which activation of this enzyme was recently shown to be involved.
