The role of IL-5 in bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis

1 Nov 1998

Abstract excerpt

Eosinophils are known to express cytokines capable of promoting fibrosis. Interleukin-5 (IL-5) is important in regulating eosinophilopoiesis, eosinophil recruitment and activation. Lung IL-5 expression is elevated in pulmonary fibrosis, wherein the eosinophil is a primary source of fibrogenic cytokines. To determine the role of IL-5 in pulmonary fibrosis, the effects of anti-IL-5 antibody were investigated in a...
