On the mechanisms of mobilization of biogenous amines from rats mast cells in conditions of protection against ionizing radiation

A study was made of the role of calcium ions and some other factors in secretion of biogenous amines from rat mast cells. The data obtained indicate that the radioprotective preparations of indolylalkylamine and imidazole series can mobilize endogenous radioprotectors. The process of the mediator release from mast cells under the effect of sulfur-containing radioprotective agents is indirect. The molecular mechanisms of mast cell exocytosis are discussed
