Influence of the estrous cycle on serum histamine response and tissue MC histamine content and number. a After experiencing 30 min of RS, serum histamine levels were similar between female mice in all stages of the estrous cycle. b The total histamine content of mouse female pMCs was similar at each stage of the estrous cycle. c During proestrus and estrus, female mice had higher numbers of pMCs than male mice. Values represent mean ± SE. *P < 0.05 vs. males
