  • Title: Suggestive evidence for a functional unit between mast cells and substance P fibers in the rat diaphragm and mesentery.
    Author: Skofitsch G, Savitt JM, Jacobowitz DM.
    Journal: Histochemistry; 1985; 82(1):5-8. PubMed ID: 2579933.
    Abstract:
    A close spatial relationship between serotonin-containing mast cells and substance P-containing nerves was shown by immunohistochemistry using a combination of antisera specific for serotonin and substance P. This supports earlier morphological results suggesting an innervation of mast cells and pharmacological studies which postulate an influence of substance P on the release of histamine from mast cells.
