Abstract
Eosinophils are differentiated in the bone marrow and transit through the blood circulation to home into tissues primarily under the regulation of IL-5. Because the number of eosinophils in the peripheral blood is relatively low under normal conditions, in vivo functional studies of eosinophils remain extremely difficult. Increasing their numbers in vivo might be useful for assessing eosinophil activities during parasite infections, allergic inflammation, and so on. Here, we provide a method for eosinophil expansion using IL-5 gene transfer by electroporation in vivo.
