| histamine |
is an amine found widely in nature, including in the human body, as it is released when cells are injured. Histamine is a vasodilator, and stimulates the secretion of gastric juices. It constricts certain smooth muscles, such as those found in the intestines, bronchi, and uterus. Histamine phosphate is used as a diagnostic aid for testing the gastric glands in the stomach.

| histamine |
The defense substance responsible for most inflammation. It is synthesized from the amino acid histidine and is secreted by mast cells, basophils, and blood platelets. It stimulates vasodilation, capillary permeability, muscle contraction of the bronchioles, secretions of a number of glands, and attracts eosinophils, the white blood cells that are capable of moderating the inflammation. Mast cell histamine release is what usually causes allergies.
