Journal ArticleDOI
Dermal deposition of eosinophil-granule major basic protein in atopic dermatitis. Comparison with onchocerciasis
Kristin M. Leiferman,Steven J. Ackerman,Hugh A. Sampson,Heidi S. Haugen,Pierre Y. Venencie,Gerald J. Gleich +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that eos inophils commonly release granule proteins in the dermis and that assessment of eosinophil involvement in disease cannot be based simply on numbers of eOSinophils in tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI
The biology of the eosinophilic leukocyte
TL;DR: Among eosinophil-activating factors, IL-5 has been associated with helminth infection and hypersensitivity diseases and would appear to be an attractive target for pharmacological intervention.
