Shown on
the cover: Polarized light micrograph of histamine crystals
Histamine, a biogenic amine, is derived from the amino acid histidine and is involved in local immune responses. It is found in virtually all mammal cells and is mainly associated with the mast cells found in connective tissue. Once released into the synapses, histamine is broken down by acetaldehyde dehydrogenase. A deficiency of this enzyme, however, triggers an allergic reaction as histamines pool in the synapses instead of being disseminated.

Call
for Papers
The editors
of Integrative Medicine: A Clinician's Journal (IM)
invite authors to submit original papers for consideration.
Papers most likely to be accepted for consideration are those
that present authoritative information on the integration
of alternative therapies with conventional medical practices
in preventing and treating disease, healing illness, and promoting
health. We are particularly interested in articles that focus
on the use of nutritional supplements, botanicals, diet, and
lifestyle. All papers are subject to peer review.
Manuscripts
should contain between 2,000 and 3,500 words and are accepted
for consideration with the understanding that they are not
available anywhere online and have not been published or submitted
elsewhere.
Authors
will be asked to transfer copyright to InnoVision Communications
(the publisher of IM) when their manuscript is accepted
for publication. Accepted manuscripts become the property
of InnoVision Communications and may not be published or be
made available online without its written permission. All
accepted manuscripts are subject to editing to conform to
the AMA Manual of Style, 9th edition, as well as accepted
journalistic standards. Authors will be asked to review galleys
after copyediting and prior to publication. |
