Eosinophils in eosinophilic pneumonia [PDF]
Idiopathic eosinophilic pneumonia (IEP) is an uncom-mon disease of unknown aetiology characterized by theaccumulation of eosinophils in the lung, variable bloodeosinophilia and peripheral opacities on the chest radio-gram. The response to steroid treatment is dramatic butrelapses are frequent, requiring the use of long-termsteroid treatment [1 ...

Eosinophilic esophagitis [PDF]
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is an atopic condition of the esophagus that has become increasingly recognized over the last 15 years. Diagnosis of the disorder is dependent on the patient’s clinical manifestations, and must be confirmed by histologic findings on esophageal mucosal biopsies.

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

Cooperation between interleukin-5 and the chemokine eotaxin to induce eosinophil accumulation in vivo. [PDF]
Experiments were designed to study the effect of systemically administered IL-5 on local eosinophil accumulation induced by the intradermal injection of the chemokine eotaxin in the guinea pig.

Eosinophils Are Important for Protection, Immunoregulation and Pathology during Infection with Nematode Microfilariae [PDF]
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

A monoclonal antibody recognizing very late activation antigen-4 inhibits eosinophil accumulation in vivo. [PDF]
Using an in vivo test system, the role of the β1 integrin very late activation antigen-4 (VLA-4) in eosinophil accumulation in allergic and nonallergic inflammatory reactions was investigated.

Regulation of eosinophilia and allergic airway inflammation by the glycan-binding protein galectin-1 [PDF]
Galectin-1 (Gal-1), a glycan-binding protein with broad antiinflammatory activities, functions as a proresolving mediator in autoimmune and chronic inflammatory disorders. However, its role in allergic airway inflammation has not yet been elucidated.

Eosinophilic pneumonias (EP) encompass a wide spectrum of lung diseases characterized by peripheral blood eosinophilia (>1 × 109 eosinophils/l) and/or alveolar eosinophilia (>25%). Blood eosinophilia may be lacking, as in the early phase of idiopathic acute EP, or in patients already taking oral corticosteroids.
