Background:

VUF10460 is a non-imidazole histamine H4 receptor agonist; binds to rat H4 receptor with a pKi of 7.46.

UF10460 binds to rat H3 and H4 receptor with pKi values of 5.75, and 7.46, respectively. VUF10460 displays approximately a 50-fold selectivity for the rat H4 receptor over the H3 receptor[1].

HCl-induced rat gastric lesions is significantly enhanced by the H4 receptor agonists VUF10460. This effect is not modified by H4 receptor antagonist JNJ7777120[1].
