[Storage of histamine in the blood following liberation from liver and antrum through trypsin: protective mechanism or a factor promoting pancreatic shock].

In dogs histamine was predominantly released from liver and antrum by intravenous injection of trypsin. The histamine content of the human liver was found to be high enough to allow the invasion of mg amounts of histamine into the circulation after histamine release. In blood histamine was rapidly taken up by corpuscular elements. At present it cannot be decided whether this mechanism leads to detoxification or to a more powerful action of histamine in the microcirculation.

[Plasma histamine levels in man following infusion of hydroxyethyl starch: a contribution to the question of allergic or anaphylactoid reactions following administration of a new plasma substitute (author's transl)].

In contrast to the effects of rapid infusion of gelatin and dextran preparations, no histamine release was observed in 10 human subjects (volunteers) following rapid infusion of hydroxyethyl starch. This was measured by fluorometric histamine determination in venous plasma. Furthermore no clinical symptoms of an allergic or anaphylactoid reaction could be detected in any of the volunteers.
