While a plant-based meal would qualify as vegan (adjective), a person who follows a plant-based (vegan) diet is not necessarily a vegan (noun). For example, someone could follow a plant-based diet but still wear leather and have no moral issue with hunting or killing animals for food.
Ball-and-stick model of cimetidine, the prototypical H 2 -receptor antagonist. The H2 receptor antagonists are a class of drugs used to block the action of histamine on parietal cells (specifically the histamine H2 receptors) in the stomach, decreasing the production of acid by these cells.he H 2 antagonists are competitive antagonists of histamine at the parietal cell H 2 receptor. They suppress the normal secretion of acid by parietal cells and the meal-stimulated secretion of acid.
H2 receptors are positively coupled to adenylate cyclase via Gs. It is a potent stimulant of cAMP production, which leads to activation of Protein Kinase A. PKA functions to phosphorylate certain proteins, affecting their activity.The drug betazole is an example of a Histamine H 2 receptor agonist.he histamine receptor H 2 belongs to the rhodopsin-like family of G protein-coupled receptors. It is an integral membrane protein and stimulates gastric acid secretion. It also regulates gastrointestinal motility and intestinal secretion and is thought to be involved in regulating cell growth and differentiation.
