Eosinophil Regulatory Activity in Models of Virus-Induced Inflammation

Using an in vitro co-culture system, purified human peripheral blood EOS were incubated with primary human PBMCs or monocytes and stimulated by poly I: The presence of EOS alters in vitro cytokine expression of PBMCs, monocytes and ECs. [...]EOS may affect host response to viral infection in asthma...

Description
Summary:Using an in vitro co-culture system, purified human peripheral blood EOS were incubated with primary human PBMCs or monocytes and stimulated by poly I: The presence of EOS alters in vitro cytokine expression of PBMCs, monocytes and ECs. [...]EOS may affect host response to viral infection in asthma by altering cytokine production of inflammatory cells as well as epithelial cells.
