Abstract

Structure-activity relationship studies have been performed on the inhibition of antigen-induced histamine release from human basophils by various naturally occurring flavonoids. Quercetin was the most active compound. Of the transitional metal ions, Cu2+ most effectively blocked the inhibitory activity of quercetin, possibly through a chelation mechanism.
