UNDERSTANDING
EOSINOPHILIC
IMMUNE DYSFUNCTION (EID)

Eosinophilic immune dysfunction (EID) can be characterized as the dysregulation of biological mechanisms involved with eosinophil recruitment and activation.1

EOSINOPHILS ARE KEY EFFECTOR CELLS2

Activated eosinophils can contribute to disease pathology through several mechanisms and play a key role in the self-perpetuating cycle of inflammatory damage in a range of diseases.1-4

ECP=eosinophil cationic protein; EDN=eosinophil-derived neurotoxin; EPX=eosinophil peroxidase; IL=interleukin; MBP=major base protein; TGF=transforming growth factor; T2=Type 2.
