Dual function of eosinophils in pathogenesis and protective immunity against parasites

open access: yesMemorias 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 ...

Anti-IL5 Drugs in COVID-19 Patients: Role of Eosinophils in SARS-CoV-2-Induced Immunopathology

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Eosinophilic pneumonias

open access: yesAllergy, 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.

Eosinophilic leukaemia [PDF]

open access: yesBritish 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.

Autophagy Protects against Eosinophil Cytolysis and Release of DNA

open access: yesCells, 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.

Eosinophils from Physiology to Disease: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2018
Despite being the second least represented granulocyte subpopulation in the circulating blood, eosinophils are receiving a growing interest from the scientific community, due to their complex pathophysiological role in a broad range of local and systemic

Eosinophils: The unsung heroes in cancer?

open access: yesOncoimmunology, 2018
Prolonged low-grade inflammation or smoldering inflammation is a hallmark of a cancer. Eosinophils are components of the immune microenvironment that modulates tumor initiation and progression.
