Role of IL-25 on Eosinophils in the Initiation of Th2 Responses in Allergic Asthma

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
BackgroundEosinophils act as a secondary antigen-presenting cell (APC) to stimulate Th cell responses against antigens. IL-25 plays a significant role in eosinophil activation in allergic asthma.

Eosinophilic Pneumonias [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2012
SUMMARY This review starts with discussions of several infectious causes of eosinophilic pneumonia, which are almost exclusively parasitic in nature. Pulmonary infections due specifically to Ascaris , hookworms, Strongyloides , Paragonimus , filariasis, and

Human circulating eosinophils secrete macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF). Potential role in asthma [PDF]

, 1998
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a potent proinflammatory mediator that has been shown to potentiate lethal endotoxemia and to play a potentially important regulatory role in human acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).

CD44 on blood eosinophils as a novel marker of bronchial asthma management

Allergology International, 1998
Bronchial asthma (BA) is characterized by infiltration of the respiratory tracts by eosinophils. A wide variety of adhesion molecules is involved in the binding of eosinophils to the vascular endothelium and their subsequent transmigration from the ...

Phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitors attenuate virus‐induced activation of eosinophils from asthmatics without affecting virus binding

Pharmacology Research & Perspectives, 2020
Acute respiratory virus infections, such as influenza and RSV, are predominant causes of asthma exacerbations. Eosinophils act as a double‐edged sword in exacerbations in that they are activated by viral infections but also can capture and inactivate ...

A Study of Eosinophils – From the Human Thymus to Eosinophilic Esophagitis [PDF]

, 2022
Eosinophils are cells of the innate immune system. They primarily reside within tissues and are most numerous in the gastrointestinal tract but are absent from the healthy esophagus.

Tissue eosinophilia and eosinophil degranulation in Riedel's invasive fibrous thyroiditis. [PDF]

, 1996
The etiology of Riedel's invasive fibrous thyroiditis (IFT) has remained obscure. This rare disorder has been confused in the past with the more common fibrous variant of Hashimoto's disease.

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 ...

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 ...
