Eosinophils and Their Role in Human Health and Disease

Overview & Synopsis

The immune system has several effector cells that have main roles in health and diseases. Many people in all countries are suffering from a wide range of diseases that can be cured, controlled, or initiated by immune system cells. One of the main cells is the eosinophil, which has an important role in the immunopathology of several diseases (e.g., allergic reactions and asthma, hypersensitivity reactions, autoimmune diseases, and immunodeficiency diseases). The current book entitled Eosinophils and Their Role in Human Health and Disease focuses on the relationship between eosinophils and diseases, and other related problems. Chapters of the book present applicable and scientific data-based medical science and will be of benefit to all researchers in medical sciences. We hope these chapters can present new approaches to our knowledge of eosinophils.
