Zusammenfassung

Die Histaminfreisetzung in peritonealen Mastzellen der Ratte, hervorgerufen durch Toluidinblau, wurde in vitro studiert und festgestellt, dass Toluidinblau vor allem auf die Feinstruktur der Mastzellgranula und deren unmittelbare Umgebung einwirkt, wodurch Cytoplasmabläschen entstehen. Diese setzen sich wahrscheinlich mit dem extra-zellulären Raum in Verbindung, woraus geschlossen wird, dass das Auswandern von Granula aus dem Zellbereich keine Vorbedingung für die Histaminfreisetzung darstellt.
