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.
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.
Yes, a leukocyte is a white blood cell
Basophils, Eosinophils,& Neutrophils (BEN)
Histamine was first isolated by Sir Henry H. Dale in 1910. Dale's research demonstrated histamine's involvement in allergic reactions and inflammation.
The Basophil is the leukocyte that releases histamine and other mediators of inflammation; contain heparin, an anticoagulant.

The basophil releases histamine and is the least common granulocyte.

Histamine is released by basophils and mast cells in near by connective tissue which is an immune response to foreign pathogens.
Basophil granulocytes (usually called basophils) are the type of white blood cell that release histamine. This is an important part of inflammation.
Leukocytes is the plural of leukocyte
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.
The correct spelling is "leukocyte."
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.
