Eosinophils in eosinophilic pneumonia [PDF]
European Respiratory Journal, 1996 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]
Canadian Medical Association Journal, 2018 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.

Production of monoclonal antibodies reactive with ovine eosinophils
BMC Immunology, 2007 Background There is strong evidence implicating eosinophils in host defence against parasites as well as allergic disease pathologies. However, a lack of reagents such as monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) specific for eosinophils has made it difficult to ...

Dual function of eosinophils in pathogenesis and protective immunity against parasites
Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1992 The functional duality of eosinophils, involved in a protective response or in pathogenesis is illustrated in various parasitic infections. In schistosomiasis, eosinophils have been shown to mediate schistosomula killing, in the presence of antibodies ...

Allergy, 2005 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.

British Medical Bulletin, 2007 The last few years have seen much progress in our understanding of, and treatments for, eosinophilic leukaemia. In preparing this review, we used Pubmed and the archives of well-known Haematology journals to search for relevant research papers and reviews published in the last 5-10 years.

Anti-IL5 Drugs in COVID-19 Patients: Role of Eosinophils in SARS-CoV-2-Induced Immunopathology
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021 SARS-CoV-2 infection stimulates a complex activation of the immune system. Eosinophils belong to the host’s defense equipment against respiratory viruses.

Prostaglandin D2 and Interleukin-5 Reduce Crth2 Surface Expression on Human Eosinophils
Allergology International, 2004 Background: Recently, a second prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) receptor, chemoattractant receptor-homologous molecule expressed on Th2 cells (CRTH2), was identified.

Autophagy Protects against Eosinophil Cytolysis and Release of DNA
Cells, 2022 The presence of eosinophils in the airway is associated with asthma severity and risk of exacerbations. Eosinophils deposit their damaging products in airway tissue, likely by degranulation and cytolysis.
