Function of a basophil?
Basophils appear in many specific kinds of inflammatory reactions, particularly those that cause allergic symptoms. Basophils contain anticoagulant heparin, which prevents blood from clotting too quickly. They also contain the vasodilator histamine, which promotes blood flow to tissues.
What causes high level of basophils in blood?
High levels of Basophils generally correspond to an active allergic response. Normal levels generally vary from zero to 2% of the existing white blood cells. Their elevation does more to establish that a higher WBC is due to a natural, proper physiological response rather than a disease process. I wouldn't worry (which is, I assume what your physician also told you) but if you would like to do something about it, you can start by examining what you are consuming or exposing yourself to that may be causing the allergic response (which is probably also not anything to worry too greatly about.)

What is the function of the histamine?
Histamine is a chemical mediator. These are released by mammalian cells and effect their cells in their immediate vicinity. Histamines are released from white blood cells in the airways, they are released in response to injury or an allergen. They cause small arteries and arterioles to dilate and the permeability of capillaries to increase. They produce an inflammatory response where swelling, itching and redness occurs.Histamines are what causes allergic reactions in people. They can cause hives, itchy skin, runny or stuffy nose and watery eyes.
