Prazosin Potentiates Mast Cell-Stabilizing Property of Adrenaline.

This study provided electrophysiological evidence for the first time that adrenaline dose-dependently inhibited the process of exocytosis, confirming its usefulness as a potent mast cell-stabilizer. The pharmacological blockade of α1-adrenergic receptor by prazosin synergistically potentiated such mast cell-stabilizing property of adrenaline, which is primarily mediated by β2-adrenergic receptors.
