EOTAXIN: EOSINOPHIL CHEMOTACTIC CYTOKINE

摘要

A chemoattractant protein called "eotaxin" is capable of attracting eosinophils and of inducing eosinophil accumulation and/or activation in vitro and in vivo. Various types of agents that inhibit or otherwise hinder the production, release or activity of eotaxin may be used therapeutically in the treatment of asthma and other inflammatory diseases.
