eosinophilic granulocyte

Our results show that eosinophilic granulocytes are the main cellular source of L1 in the normal gut.

Neutrophilic granulocytes were identified by their content of neutrophil elastase, and eosinophilic granulocytes by monoclonal antibody EG2.

Myelopoiesis is the regulated formation of myeloid cells, including eosinophilic granulocytes, basophilic granulocytes, neutrophilic granulocytes, and monocytes.

EPO from eosinophilic granulocytes participates in immunological reactions, and potentiates tumor necrosis factor (TNF) production and hydrogen peroxide release by human monocyte-derived macrophages.

Apart from the physical protection afforded by the surface epithelium, the innate defence system includes primarily monocytes/ macrophages, neutrophilic and eosinophilic granulocytes, and natural killer cells along with various anti-microbial factors produced by all these cell types.
