Abstract
EARLIER results1 have indicated that an increase in the capacity to bind histamine can be regarded as an important factor in histamine desensitization. In these experiments, a large amount of bound histamine was found in the tissues of mice after repeated injections of histamine. It was therefore interesting to look for a relationship between the supply of histamine to the tissues and their capacity to bind this substance.
