Abstract
MOST investigations of histamine activity relative to the cardiovascular system have been concerned with haemodynamic effects. In a search for the effects of various agents on lipid synthesis in aortic cells in culture it was found that histamine interferes with lipid synthesis. Furthermore, such suppression of lipid synthesis can be prevented by the addition of an antihistamine.
