Eosinophils are a kind of white blood cell that helps fight disease. The exact role of eosinophils in your body isn't clear, but they're usually linked with allergic diseases and certain infections.
Eosinophils are a type of white blood cell. Low eosinophil numbers may occur due to certain medications or an underlying health condition, such as Cushing syndrome. Eosinophils play a role in the ...
Targeted deletion of the transcription factor XBP1 in hematopoietic stem cells selectively prevents eosinophil maturation in the bone marrow without affecting other lineages of the immune system.
A 70-year-old man with chronic renal disease, splenomegaly, and eosinophilia presented with transient weakness in the left arm, visual disturbances, disequilibrium, and anomia. Magnetic resonance ...
Hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) is a heterogeneous disorder characterised by persistent, abnormal eosinophil elevation in ...
Moderate-to-severe asthma remains poorly treated. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of dupilumab (SAR231893/REGN668), a fully human monoclonal antibody to the alpha subunit of the interleukin-4 ...
For patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), lower eosinophil counts are associated with increased in-hospital ...
Background and Objective: Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is produced by vascular endothelial cells and epithelial cells, T-lymphocytes and phagocytes. Increased ET-1 levels have been demonstrated in the ...
The respiratory mucosa is the largest body surface area to be exposed to, and require defense from, the external environment. It is not surprising, therefore, that a robust, vigorous, and rapidly ...
Researchers in Sweden have provided a comprehensive characterization of circulating granulocytes in people infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) – the agent that ...
Granulocytes should be transfused ABO- and Rhesus-compatible as there is always a significant RBC contamination. If the recipient is cytomegalo virus-negative concentrates from cytomegalo ...
