One of the most popular versions of Cinderella was written in French by Charles Perrault in 1697, under the name Cendrillon. The popularity of his tale was due to his additions to the story, including the pumpkin, the fairy-godmother and the introduction of glass slippers.
Basophils are only found in blood in healthy individuals (normally less than 1% of leukocytes), but are known to be rapidly recruited to inflamed tissues, where they can reach high densities (e.g., Jones-Mote reaction, antiâtick immunity) and play non-redundant roles.
Basophils contain histamine and heparin, a blood thinning substance produced by the body. The histamine that is released by basophils (and mast cells) is the source of the symptoms of common seasonal allergies such as watery eyes, itchy skin, and runny nose.
