Eosinophilic inflammation: An Appealing Target for Pharmacologic Treatments in Severe Asthma
Severe asthma is characterized by different endotypes driven by complex pathologic mechanisms. In most patients with both allergic and non-allergic asthma, predominant eosinophilic airway inflammation is present.

Experience with mepolizumab in adults with severe eosinophilic asthma: a case series from India
Severe asthma can be associated with eosinophilic or allergic phenotypes or both. Eosinophilic inflammation is associated with exacerbations and disease severity due to biological activity of interleukin‐5 (IL‐5).

Targeting Eosinophils in Asthma [PDF]
Recruitment of eosinophils has long been recognized as a hallmark of the inflammatory response in asthma. However, the functions of this population of cells in host defense remain poorly understood. Eosinophils play an important part in the inflammatory response and have key regulatory roles in the afferent arm of the immune response.

Severe eosinophilic bronchial asthma: new therapeutic options
Eosinophilic asthma is a common phenotype of severe asthma, occurring in at least half of patients. In recent years, there have been significant changes in the approaches to the treatment of severe bronchial asthma and, above all, eosinophilic asthma ...

Clinical characteristics of eosinophilic COPD versus COPD patients with a history of asthma
Eosinophilic COPD appears to be a distinct patient subgroup with an increased corticosteroid response. Eosinophilic COPD has been labelled as part of the asthma COPD overlap syndrome (ACOS).

Eosinophilic Inflammation in Allergic Asthma [PDF]
Eosinophils are circulating granulocytes involved in pathogenesis of asthma. A cascade of processes directed by Th2 cytokine producing T-cells influence the recruitment of eosinophils into the lungs. Furthermore, multiple elements including interleukin (IL)-5, IL-13, chemoattractants such as eotaxin, Clara cells, and CC chemokine receptor (CCR)3 are ...
