Eosinophils are primarily tissue resident cells, and play important roles in host’s immune responses
and maintenance of chronic infection during infection with tissue-invasive parasitic helminth. Such parasite secretes particular molecules to evade eosinophil-mediated helminthotoxicity.
Continuous competition between eosinophil and parasite leads to stable equilibria between
them. Recent evidence provides a concept that not only eosinophils contribute to parasite’s survival
but also parasite modulates host’s immune response.
Therefore, it is important to know complex interrelationship between eosinophil and parasite
to understand how gently parasite talk to eosinophils and how carefully eosinophils listen to
parasite’s voice. In this regard, this review examin papers about eosinophil-mediated tissue inflammatory
responses in response to helminthic parasite
