Abstract
Histamine H3 receptors are found mostly in central nervous system involved in the regulation of release of various neurotransmitters in brain. They have been implicated in diverse potential therapeutic applications such as sleepwake disorders, attention-deficient hyperactivity disorder, epilepsy, cognitive impairment and obesity. This review is an attempt to elucidate the function of H3 receptors and their role in various CNS disorders. Also, it is aimed at collating the information on efforts of various medicinal chemists to synthesize the H3 receptor agonists and antagonists in single article.

Drugs and Mitochondria
Mitochondria play a central role in the life and death of cells. They are not merely the center for energy metabolism but are also the headquarters for different catabolic and anabolic processes, calcium fluxes, and various signaling pathways. Mitochondria maintain homeostasis in the cell by interacting with reactive oxygen-nitrogen species ...read more
Mitochondria as a Therapeutic Target in Metabolic Disorders
Mitochondria are the primary site of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production in mammalian cells. Moreover, these organelles are an important source of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in virtually any nucleated cell type. The modulation of a myriad of cellular signaling pathways depends on the mitochondrial physiology. Mitochondrial dysfunction is observed ...read more
