  • Title: Effects of antihistamines on isolated human lung mast cells, basophil leucocytes and erythrocytes.
    Author: Lau HY, Pearce FL.
    Journal: Agents Actions; 1989 Apr; 27(1-2):83-5. PubMed ID: 2473642.
    Abstract:
    Low concentrations of H1- and H2-receptor directed compounds inhibited the immunologic secretion of histamine from human lung mast cells and basophil leucocytes and protected human erythrocytes from hypotonic lysis. Higher concentrations induced a release of the amine from the histaminocytes. These results are discussed in terms of the possible membrane effects of the test compounds.
