A putative role for eosinophils in tick rejection
Experientia
|January 15, 1981
Abstract:
In the reaction of Bos taurus cattle to infestation by the tick Boophilus microplus, mast cell histamine is translocated by the eosinophils to the attachment site. The concentration pattern of this cutaneous mediator for pain appears related to the grooming behaviour of the host.
