Conclusion

The increased metabolic activity was, however, observed for about an hour after the exposure of the mast cells to the releasers. The metabolic stimulation thus continued long after histamine release was completed. The persistent metabolic stimulation is likely to be related to the repair of the plasma membrane after exocytosis and restorative activities within the cell.
