Our latest manuscript on #eosinophils in the #influenza breakthrough infection model. What started as an unexpected observation in flow cytometry data for alveolar macrophages was a source of fun for many years now in the lab. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41190814/
Transient lung eosinophilia during breakthrough influenza infection in vaccinated mice is associated with protective and balanced Type 1/2 immune responses - PubMed
Our findings reveal that eosinophilic recruitment during influenza breakthrough infection is non-pathological and represents a balanced immune response, distinct from highly inflammatory environments seen in primary influenza infection or allergic sensitization. We observed eosinophil enrichment in …
