Keratinocytes have histamine H-1 and H-2 receptors, but their functions are poorly understood. To clarify the role of histamine receptors in the epidermis, we examined the effects of histamine receptor antagonists and agonists applied epicutaneously on the recovery of skin barrier function disrupted by tape stripping in hairless mice. Histamine H-2 receptor antagonists famotidine and cimetidine accelerated the recovery of skin barrier function, but histamine and histamine H-2 receptor agonist dimaprit delayed the barrier repair. Application of compound 48/80, a histamine releaser, also delayed the recovery. Imidazole, an analog of histamine, had no effect. The histamine H-1 receptor antagonists diphenhydramine and tripelennamine accelerated the recovery. Histamine H-3 receptor agonist N-alpha-methylhistamine and antagonist thioperamide had no effect. In addition, topical application of famotidine or diphenhydramine prevented epidermal hyperplasia in mice with skin barrier disrupted by acetone treatment in a dry environment (humidity
