Eosinophils are important for protection, immunoregulation and pathology during infection with nematode microfilariae. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2014
Eosinophil responses typify both allergic and parasitic helminth disease. In helminthic disease, the role of eosinophils can be both protective in immune responses and destructive in pathological responses. To investigate whether eosinophils are involved

Activated eosinophil plays a role in promoting fibrosis in endometriotic lesion [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
The fibrosis mechanism in endometriosis is not elucidated. We investigated the role of eosinophil in fibrosis of endometriosis. The endometriotic stromal cells (ESCs) and endometrial epithelial cells (EECs) were subjected to in vitro experiments.

Single-cell RNA-sequencing of circulating eosinophils from asthma patients reveals an inflammatory signature [PDF]

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Asthma is the most common chronic lung disorder in the United States. While asthma is heterogeneous, blood eosinophils are central to the pathogenesis in most cases.

Role of Eosinophils in Intestinal Inflammation and Fibrosis in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: An Overlooked Villain?

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Eosinophils are leukocytes which reside in the gastrointestinal tract under homeostatic conditions, except for the esophagus which is normally devoid of eosinophils.

The Role of Eosinophils in Bullous Pemphigoid: A Developing Model of Eosinophil Pathogenicity in Mucocutaneous Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2018
Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune blistering disease which carries a significant mortality and morbidity. While historically BP has been characterized as an IgG driven disease mediated by anti-BP180 and BP230 IgG autoantibodies, developments in ...

Transcriptional Profiling of Mouse Eosinophils Identifies Distinct Gene Signatures Following Cellular Activation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Eosinophils are multifunctional, evolutionary conserved leukocytes that are involved in a plethora of responses ranging from regulation of tissue homeostasis to host defense and cancer.

High fat diet causes depletion of intestinal eosinophils associated with intestinal permeability. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The development of intestinal permeability and the penetration of microbial products are key factors associated with the onset of metabolic disease. However, the mechanisms underlying this remain unclear. Here we show that, unlike liver or adipose tissue,

A role for eosinophils in the intestinal immunity against infective Ascaris suum larvae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The aim of this study was to explore the mechanisms of resistance against invading Ascaris suum larvae in pigs. Pigs received a low dose of 100 A. suum eggs daily for 14 weeks.

Differential regulation of Type 1 and Type 2 mouse eosinophil activation by apoptotic cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Eosinophils are multifunctional, evolutionary conserved leukocytes that are involved in a plethora of responses ranging from regulation of tissue homeostasis, host defense and cancer. Although eosinophils have been studied mostly in the context of Type 2

Eosinophils: A Friend or Foe in human health and diseases

open access: yesKidney Diseases, 2022
Since their discovery, around 150 years, eosinophils research has been a field of changing perspective, and new directions are emerging since then. Initially, eosinophils were perceived as terminally-differentiated cytotoxic effector cells.
