Abstract in brief

  • Eosinophils are traditionally seen as cells that defend against parasites and are involved in allergic reactions, but recent research shows they also have important regulatory roles in the immune system.
  • During normal conditions, eosinophils develop in the bone marrow, migrate to tissues guided by eotaxin, and rely on interleukin-5 for growth and survival, actively influencing immune responses through their granules, cytokines, and interactions with other cells.
  • New research focuses on understanding how eosinophils interact with both innate and adaptive immune cells, as well as non-immune cells, highlighting the need for advanced experimental tools to explore their full functions and the remaining questions about these complex cells.]
