Histamine H<sub>3</sub> Receptor Ligands—KSK-59 and KSK-73—Reduce Body Weight Gain in a Rat Model of Excessive Eating

Noting the worldwide rapid increase in the prevalence of overweight and obesity new effective drugs are now being sought to combat these diseases. Histamine H<sub>3</sub> receptor antagonists may represent an effective therapy as they have been shown to modulate histamine synthesis and r...

Based on the preliminary studies determining affinity, intrinsic activity, and selected pharmacokinetic parameters, two histamine H<sub>3</sub> receptor ligands were selected. Female rats were fed palatable food for 28 days and simultaneously administered the tested compounds intraperitoneally (i.p.) at a dose of 10 or 1 mg/kg b.w./day.
