iollo markers that associate with Basophils
Histamine
Histamine is released by basophils and mast cells during allergic reactions and inflammation. Elevated histamine levels are directly associated with increased basophil counts and activity.References

Tryptophan
Tryptophan and its metabolites like serotonin may influence basophil recruitment and activation, as serotonin can be released by activated basophils. However, the relationship is not as direct as with histamine.References
