Mechanisms and consequences of membrane permeabilization by mast cell agents

This reasoning chain links the actions of mastoparans and related histamine-releasing agents—including compound 48/80—to their effects on membrane permeabilization across cellular systems, and the downstream biological consequences such as pseudoallergic reactions and increased susceptibility to other agents.
