Autacoids are locally-acting substances that play a significant role in the regulation of various physiological processes within the body. They are typically produced in small amounts and act locally, often in a paracrine or autocrine manner, meaning they affect nearby cells. Autacoids are involved in a wide range of functions, including inflammation, immune responses, smooth muscle contraction, and blood vessel dilation.
Important autacoids include:
1. Histamine: Histamine is a biogenic amine released by mast cells and basophils in response
