Abstract excerpt

The beneficial effects of polynuclear eosinophils (PE) are well known. However, under certain circumstances, PE can be harmful. The heart is a prime target for PE toxicity which is due to release of basic proteins by eosinophils including major basic protein, cationic protein, and peroxidase. The most common manifestation of PE toxicity is chronic parietal endocarditis (CPE) which regroups two entities:...
