Parallel secretion of endogenous 5-hydroxytryptamine and histamine from mast cells stimulated by vasoactive peptides and compound 48/80.

摘要

The peptides, neurotensin, substance P, somatostatin, and bombesin, several analogues and fragments of neurotensin and compound 48/80, all caused the secretion of both endogenous 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and histamine. There was no differential effect of any of the secretagogues tested on the secretion of 5-HT and histamine. Amitriptyline prevented the secretion of histamine in response to stimulation by neurotensin, substance P, somatostatin or compound 48/80 but was without effect on the secretion of endogenous 5-HT.
