Eosinophils are a hallmark of filarial infections. They are primary effector cells and can attack filariae by releasing extracellular traps that contain toxic cationic proteins, such as eosinophil peroxidase and major basic protein. Previous studies demonstrated that the extracellular traps of eosinophils are induced by the microfilariae of Litomos...
