Mast cells are involved in the immune response, especially during inflammation (like in a cold). Histamine is a chemical they release to increase inflammation, causing symptoms like swelling and redness. Epinephrine is related to the fight - or - flight response, ground substance is part of connective tissue matrix, and melanin is for pigmentation. So the correct option is Histamine.
