Abstract
Hypodense eosinophils are observed in peripheral blood and tissue from patients with eosinophilia due to helminthic infections. In this study, the variation in eosinophil density was examined in rats during Trichinella spiralis infection. Hypodense eosinophils were observed in the peripheral blood in association with Trichinella infection. In peritoneal fluid, which was representative of tissue fluid, a majority of eosinophils were hypodense regardless of the infection. During the course of tissue eosinophilia after the infection, there was a particular increase in the lowest dense cells in the population of hypodense eosinophils. Eosinophils with lower density, demonstrated larger diameters and had more potent cytotoxic activity.
