Clinical and Immunological Features of Patients with Interleukin-5-Producing T Cell Clones and Eosinophilia.
Int. Arch. Allergy Immunol. 124, 242-245 (2001)
Recent work suggests that in some patients with the hypereosinophilic syndrome, a clone of abnormal T cells produces large amounts of interleukin-5. In this study, we examined 60 patients with idiopathic eosinophilia. Sixteen patients had circulating T cells with an aberrant immunophenotype that, in most cases, were associated with different forms of skin inflammation. The abnormal T cells produced large amounts of interleukin-5, which may have increased eosinophil differentiation in the bone marrow of these patients.
