A mast cell is part of a group of cells called leucocytes. Leucocytes are white blood cells and are found in the blood plasma with erythrocytes, red blood cells. Mast cells have immunological functions, or they are part of the immune system. They form part of an early warning system.
These can be toxic to foreign invaders, such as parasites, and are released when the mast cell is triggered by the immune system. A mast cell tumor is formed from many of these mast cells. Because of the histamine, heparin, and enzymes present in mast cell tumors, they can create problems when damaged or removed.
