उत्तर

This statement is false.

Explanation:

Histamine is actually released by mast cells and basophils, not lymphocytes. Histamine is a key mediator of the inflammatory response and causes dilation of blood vessels and increased permeability, which contribute to the symptoms of inflammation and allergic reactions. Lymphocytes, on the other hand, are primarily involved in adaptive immunity and antibody production, but they do not release histamine.
