Éosinophiles et réponse antitumorale

Future prospects and projects. - The putative anti-tumour effect of eosinophils relies on their tight contact with tumour cells. As a consequence, future immunotherapy studies aiming at an anti-tumour eosinophilic reaction might attract and activate eosinophils within the tumour itself. This could be obtained via direct injection of cytokines (IL-3, IL-5, GM-CSF…) at tumour site or by the use of expression vectors encoding for these molecules.
