Effect of cromoglycate on anaphylactic histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells

L G Garland
PMCID: PMC1776471  PMID: 4132518

Abstract

Cromoglycate (1-30 μM) produced a concentration-dependent inhibition of anaphylactic histamine release from actively sensitized rat peritoneal mast cells but at lower concentrations (0·01-0·1 μM) occasionally produced a concentration-dependent enhancement of histamine release.
