“…This suggests that histamine exceeds its physiological usefulness during exposure to large amounts of it, and this overwhelms the inactivation mechanisms, causing unwanted effects on blood pressure, vascular tone, and permeability. In addition, there may be differences in the responses of individuals to histamine, based in part on the physiological effects mediated by the 4 known histamine receptors (H 1-4 ), which differ in tissue distribution and affinity for histamine (43,44). Polymorphisms discovered in histamine receptors may also account for some of the physiological differences (45,46).…”

“…[3][4][5] These mediators are devastating to the asthmatic lung causing, for example, bronchoconstriction. 6,7 In comparison with healthy individuals, the mast cell numbers are increased in the airway smooth muscle 8 and alveolar parenchyma 9 of asthmatics. As a consequence, a high number of mast cells can be activated during allergen exposure, and the symptoms can be severe.…”
