Interleukin-5 modulates interleukin-8 secretion in eosinophilic inflammation

Mediators of Inflammation, 1998
Serum and BALF (bronchoalveolar lavage fluid) IL-8 levels and serum levels were investigated in Tox ocara canis infected guinea-pigs and the role of IL-5 as a modulator of cytokine secretion was studied.

Interleukin-5 Mediates Parasite-Induced Protection against Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis: Association with Induction of Antigen-Specific CD4+CD25+ T Regulatory Cells

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
ObjectiveTo examine if the protective effect of parasite infection on experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) was due to interleukin (IL)-5, a cytokine produced by a type-2 response that induces eosinophilia.

Short-term stimulation with interleukin (IL)-4 enhances purified protein derivative-induced production of an eosinophil chemotactic lymphokine, but suppresses IL-5 production

Allergology International, 1998
The effect of interleukin (IL)-4 on eosinophil chemotactic lymphokine (ECL) production from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) stimulated with purified protein derivative (PPD) was examined.

Eosinophil Lineage-Committed Progenitors as a Therapeutic Target for Asthma

Cells, 2021
Eosinophilic asthma is the most prevalent phenotype of asthma. Although most asthmatics are adequately controlled by corticosteroid therapy, a subset (5–10%) remain uncontrolled with significant therapy-related side effects. This indicates the need for a
