TLDR Histamine plays key roles in immune responses, stomach acid, and brain signals.
The document explored new approaches to understanding histamine's physiology, highlighting its roles in immune responses, gastric acid secretion, and neurotransmission. It investigated the mechanisms of histamine production and regulation, particularly the role of histidine decarboxylase. The study also examined histamine's effects on various tissues and its potential involvement in inflammation and allergic reactions, contributing to a deeper understanding of its physiological functions and implications for health and disease.
