    cells release histamine and other chemicals causing inflammation

    Mast Cell Degranulation, also known as Mast Cell Activation, is a process where mast cells release granules containing histamine, cytokines, and other inflammatory mediators into the surrounding tissue. This release can trigger allergic reactions, inflammation, and other immune responses, playing a crucial role in conditions like asthma, eczema, and anaphylaxis.
