Histamine was found to be stored in the submandibular gland of the cat mainly in the mast cells. The amine is released from mast cells by compound 48/80 and pilocarpine. This was demonstrated in the in vivo and in vitro experiments and by histological examination. During the physiological stimulation of the gland, via the electrical stimulation of the chorda tympani nerve, significant changes of histamine content were not found. This could be explained by the increased synthesis of histamine during physiological stimulation. The physiological role of histamine in salivary secretion was demonstrated. The similarity between the roles of histamine, mast cells and chromaffine-like cells in salivary and gastric secretion is discussed.
