Mechanism of induction of eosinophilia by various types of the immune response. The TH2-type immune response is the dominant and most effective mechanism of eosinophilia. However, both TH1 and innate mechanism are capable of inducing eosinophilia in the absence of a concomitant TH2 response.

Putative role of eosinophils in asthma. A, Maintenance of a TH2 response by eosinophils. Eosinophils help recruit dendritic cells through eosinophil-derived neurotoxin. TH2 cells produce regulatory cytokines such as IL-5 and IL-13, which induce eosinophil differentiation and activation. Eosinophils, in return, produce IL-18, which is important for continued IL-13 production by TH2 cells. B, Eosinophil-derived mediators are toxic to epithelial cells and antagonize M2 muscarinic receptors in the airways. C, Eosinophils induce myofibroblast differentiation through the production of TGF–β and contribute to airway remodeling.
