Both Heparin and Histamine are released by basophils and mast cells. These cells are very similar, but mast cells are found on mucous membranes (connective tissue) and basophils are white blood cells that travel in the blood in the circulatory system.

Basophils are a type of leukocyte that release histamine in response to allergens or inflammatory signals. Histamine release from basophils contributes to allergic reactions and inflammation.

The rarest leukocyte is?
Basophils are the rarest type of leukocyte, making up less than 1% of the total white blood cells in circulation. They play a role in allergic reactions and the inflammatory response by releasing histamine and other chemicals.
What stimulates histamine release?
Histamine release can be stimulated by various triggers such as allergens, physical injury, stress, and certain types of drugs. When the immune system detects these triggers, it releases histamine as part of the inflammatory response.
Is leukocyte the biological term for white blood cell?
Yes, a leukocyte is a white blood cell
What type of cell is a leukocyte?
Basophils, Eosinophils,& Neutrophils (BEN)
Who discovered histamine?
Histamine was first isolated by Sir Henry H. Dale in 1910. Dale's research demonstrated histamine's involvement in allergic reactions and inflammation.
What leukocytes responsible for releasing histamine and other mediatoir of inflammation?
The Basophil is the leukocyte that releases histamine and other mediators of inflammation; contain heparin, an anticoagulant.
What is the granulocyte that releases histamine?
basophil
Releases histamine and promotes inflammation?
basophil
What release histamine and is the least common granulocytes?
The basophil releases histamine and is the least common granulocyte.
The rarest leukocyte is?

What stimulates histamine release?
Histamine release can be stimulated by various triggers such as allergens, physical injury, stress, and certain types of drugs. When the immune system detects these triggers, it releases histamine as part of the inflammatory response.
What releases histamine promotes inflammation?
Histamine is released by basophils and mast cells in near by connective tissue which is an immune response to foreign pathogens.
What type of white blood cell releases the chemical histamine?
Basophil granulocytes (usually called basophils) are the type of white blood cell that release histamine. This is an important part of inflammation.
Which hormones is not secreted by the basophils?
Basophils primarily release histamine and other pro-inflammatory molecules in response to allergens. They do not secrete hormones like the endocrine glands, such as the pituitary gland, which releases hormones like growth hormone or thyroid-stimulating hormone.
What is the plural word for leukocyte?
Leukocytes is the plural of leukocyte
How do you spell luekocyte?
The correct spelling is "leukocyte."
What does antagionst mean?
An antagonist is a substance that blocks the effects of something else. In medicine, an example would be Benadryl (diphenhydramine, usually used to relieve allergy symptoms) is a histamine antagonist. So when the body releases a large amount of histamine into your bloodstream (like during an allergic reaction), we can take Benadryl. The Benadryl will bind to the histamine receptors in the body and block the histamine from attaching and causing an allergic reaction. Narcan (naloxone) is an opioid antagonist, which can reverse an opioid overdose.
