Countless heart-infiltrating eosinophils with bright pink granules and bi-lobed nuclei are visible between large, striated cardiomyocytes. In addition, T cells and macrophages are infiltrating the heart. This image relates to the article by Diny et al. (pp. 2749–2760), in which the authors analyze the pathway required for eosinophil trafficking to the heart by examining heart biopsies from myocarditis patients and a murine myocarditis model. IL-4 and IL-13 induce production of eotaxins CCL11 and CCL24 by cardiac fibroblasts and macrophages. In response to eotaxins, eosinophils migrate to the heart via the receptor CCR3.
