Definition of eosinophil in English English dictionary: A white blood cell responsible for combating infection by parasites in the body; A type of white blood cell that participates in allergic reactions and helps to fight certain parasitic infections; A white blood cell that contains granules filled with a specific set of chemicals and enzymes that influence inflammatory reactions They are increased in several classes of disease including allergic diseases; a granulocyte (a type of white blood cell) that plays a role in allergic reactions and defense against parasites; a white blood cell or other granulocyte with cytoplasmic inclusions readily stained by eosin; An eosinophil is a variety of white blood cell distinguished by the presence in its cytoplasm of coarse granules; its function is poorly understood, but it is known to be capable of ingesting foreign particles, is present in large numbers in lining or covering surfaces of the body, and is involved in allergic responses; a type of white blood cell that protects against infection; A white blood cell containing granules which readily stain with the red dye eosin; a leukocyte readily stained with eosin; A type of white blood cell Eosinophils are one type of granulocyte; A type of white blood cell whose major useful role seems to be in protecting against parasitic infections It is also associated, however, with the inflammation that is at the root of asthma People with asthma tend to have more eosinophils in their blood and, in addition, have an unusual number of eosinophils "migrate" into their lungs It is still not entirely clear whether eosinophils cause some of the problems that asthmatics experience, or whether they are just associated with the process without doing damage themselves; A white blood cell that contains granules filled with chemicals damaging to parasites, and enzymes that damp down inflammatory reactions; a leukocyte (blood cell) that can accept eosin stain; An inflammatory cell in the blood that is attracted to the site of allergic reactions and participates in allergic inflammation Hay Fever - allergic rhinitis; A specific type of immune cell that can cause tissue damage in the late phase of an allergic reaction; White blood cells that are responsible for combating infection by parasites in the body; A white cell of the category known as granulocytes These cells contain numerous dense granules in their cytoplasm that comprise a battery of highly active digestive chemicals and toxins Their chief role is thought to be in combatting large parasites, although occasionally their activity may be triggered by other agents, potentially leading to damage of normal tissues (see eosinophilia myalgia syndrome)
eosinophil granulocyte: A type of white blood cell commonly referred to as eosinophils
eosinophil granulocytes: plural form of eosinophil granulocyte
eosinophils: A type of white blood cell or leukocyte which stains a red color with eosin stain; normally about 2 to 3 percent of white cells in the blood but tending to decrease during stressful situations and thus usable as an index for stress
eosinophils: 1-3% of leukocytes - Phagocytes that destroy parasites either by engulfing them or by attaching to them and releasing enzymes that destroy the parasites Such chemicals are implicated in allergic reactions, especially bronchorestriction in asthma
eosinophils: White blood cells that make up 0-5% of all white blood cells Eosinophils are involved in allergic responses Normal range = up to 0 5
eosinophils: are a type of granulocytes They destroy parasitic organisms and play a major role in allergic reactions (hypersensitivity) They also secrete chemical mediators that can cause bronchoconstriction in asthma
eosinophils: plural of eosinophil
eosinophils: a type of white blood cell that can increase with allergies, asthmas, and infections
eosinophils: Granular leukocytes with a nucleus that usually has two lobes connected by a slender thread of chromatin, and cytoplasm containing coarse, round granules that are uniform in size and stainable by eosin
