Eosinophils and IL-4 Support Nematode Growth Coincident with an Innate Response to Tissue Injury.
It has become increasingly clear that the functions of eosinophils extend beyond host defense and allergy to metabolism and tissue regeneration. These influences have strong potential to be relevant in worm infections in which eosinophils are prominent and parasites rely on the host for nutrients to...
