Eosinophils, once thought secondary, are now recognized for releasing cytotoxic mediators and regulating immune responses. This review highlights their evolving functions, including surface molecule expression and mediator release.

Area of Science:

  • Immunology
  • Cell Biology

Background:

  • Eosinophils were traditionally viewed as secondary cells primarily involved in inflammation.
  • Recent research reveals a more complex role in immune processes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review recent findings on eosinophil functions beyond inflammation.
  • To explore their roles in immune response regulation and mediator release.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current scientific literature on eosinophils.
  • Analysis of studies on eosinophil surface molecules and mediators.

Main Results:

  • Eosinophils produce a diverse range of cytotoxic mediators.
  • They actively participate in immune regulation through cytokine and chemokine production.

  • Novel functions are linked to specific surface molecule expression and mediator profiles.
  • Conclusions:

    • Eosinophils possess multifaceted roles in immunity, extending beyond inflammation.
    • Their capacity for mediator release and immune modulation is significant.
