The following are known triggers of mast cell degranulation (in addition to IgG activation via pathogen or allergen):[ref] Acetylcholine Complement fragments (C3, C4, C5) Various drugs, environmental toxins (MRGPRX2 receptor, details below) Peptides (including endorphin, leptin, PTH, and more) Physical conditions (cold, heat, pressure, stress, and vibration)
In fact, dramatic changes like these could be an indication of an often overlooked pair of conditions: histamine intolerance and mast cell dysfunction
The resultant foam can then be spooned off and served or even frozen to create a novel texture
Mast cell activation may facilitate the entry of pathogenic antibodies into the CNS by disrupting the blood-brain barrier and attracting additional immune cells into neural tissue
