N2 - Histamine H1 antagonists or "antihistamines" are one of the most prescribed drug families in Western countries. They exert their effect by binding to the histamine H1 receptor, a receptor belonging to the class of rhodopsin-like G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). In this review, the binding of ligands to the human histamine H1 receptor with respect to site-directed mutagenesis studies and molecular modeling techniques is described. The ligands described include agonists (histamine and histaprodifens), a stereoselective partial agonist (lisuride), and selected inverse agonists (mepyramine, acrivastine and triprolidine).
