histamine and Fasciitis

histamine has been researched along with Fasciitis in 1 studies

Fasciitis: Inflammation of the fascia. There are three major types: 1, Eosinophilic fasciitis, an inflammatory reaction with eosinophilia, producing hard thickened skin with an orange-peel configuration suggestive of scleroderma and considered by some a variant of scleroderma; 2, Necrotizing fasciitis (FASCIITIS, NECROTIZING), a serious fulminating infection (usually by a beta hemolytic streptococcus) causing extensive necrosis of superficial fascia; 3, Nodular/Pseudosarcomatous /Proliferative fasciitis, characterized by a rapid growth of fibroblasts with mononuclear inflammatory cells and proliferating capillaries in soft tissue, often the forearm; it is not malignant but is sometimes mistaken for fibrosarcoma.

"In a patient with eosinophilic fasciitis, a biopsy specimen obtained within 4 weeks of the onset of symptoms showed infiltration of the subcutis and fascia with mast cells, and there was up to a 19-fold increase in plasma histamine levels."7.67Increased plasma histamine level in eosinophilic fasciitis. ( Falanga, V; Kerdel, FA; Soter, NA, 1989)
