Eosinophil Activation: How the Cytoskeleton Shapes Immune Response

336 Microsc. Microanal. 26 (Suppl 2), 2020 doi:10.1017/S1431927620014294 © Microscopy Society of America 2020 Eosinophil Activation: How the Cytoskeleton Shapes Immune Response Joshua Mitchell and Deane Mosher University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, Wisconsin, United States Eosinophils (EOS) play an essential role in human health and disease. EOS are granule-containing leukocytes that contribute uniquely to the immune response through degranulation and release of granular proteins. Eosinophils are regularly associated with parasitic infection, but also respond to a broad range of stimuli, from bacterial infection to environmental antigens and mechanical injury. Disequilibrium in their activity can result in various clinical presentations such as eosinophilic asthma, esophagitis, and hyper-eosinophilic syndrome. However, eosinophils have remained understudied compared to other blood leukocytes. There is a critical need to understand the fundamental molecular mechanisms by which EOS become activated, which can result in significant downstream effects in human health. Activation of EOS with interleukin-5 (IL5) and IL33 results in dramatic morphological and cytoskeletal rearrangements. The EOS becomes polarized, transitioning from a spherical to an acorn-like shape with distinct cellular domains. A uropod at the rear of the cell frames the nucleus, called the nucleopod, which serves as the primary signaling center of the activated EOS1. The front of the cell has a ruffled migratory edge which is adjacent to the granulomere, which occupies the majority of the EOS. Upon activation, microtubules, actin, and vimentin undergo very distinct reorganization revealed by confocal and super- resolution microscopy. The web-like vimentin network of naïve EOS condenses into the nucleopod, supporting the uropod-like extension that trails behind the cell. Microtubules span the nucleus to the apical tip of the nucleopod, connecting the granulomere to signal center of the activated EOS. Actin localizes to the leading edge of the EOS as well as the granulomere, providing the necessary motility for migration and granule anchoring in the body of the cell. Our investigation of the cytoskeletal response to EOS activation will help illuminate the fundamental molecular mechanisms that govern EOS polarization, from adhesion and migration to primary function within the immune system.

Classically, the eosinophil was considered to fulfill a protective role against parasitic infections, primarily large multicellular helminths. Although eosinophils are predominantly associated with parasite infections, evidence of a role for eosinophils in mediating immunity against bacterial, viral, and fungal infections has been recently reported. Among the mechanisms by which eosinophils are proposed to exert their protective effects is the production of DNA-based extracellular traps (ETs).

Eosinophil Response Against Classical and Emerging
REVIEWS Eosinophil Response Against Classical and Emerging Respiratory Viruses: COVID-19 Rodrigo-Muñoz JM1,2, Sastre B1,2, Cañas JA1,2, Gil-Martínez M1, Redondo N1, del Pozo V1,2 1Immunology Department, Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria (IIS) Fundación Jiménez Díaz, Madrid, Spain 2CIBER de Enfermedades Respiratorias (CIBERES), Madrid, Spain J Investig Allergol Clin Immunol 2021; Vol. 31(2): 94-107 doi: 10.18176/jiaci.0624 Abstract Eosinophils were discovered more than 140 years ago. These polymorphonuclear leukocytes have a very active metabolism and contain numerous intracellular secretory granules that enable multiple effects on both health and disease status. Classically, eosinophils have been considered important immune cells in the pathogenesis of inflammatory processes (eg, parasitic helminth infections) and allergic or pulmonary diseases (eg, asthma) and are always associated with a type 2 immune response. Furthermore, in recent years, eosinophils have been linked to the immune response by conferring host protection against fungi, bacteria, and viruses, which they recognize through several molecules, such as toll-like receptors and the retinoic acid–inducible gene 1–like receptor. The immune protection provided by eosinophils is exerted through multiple mechanisms and properties. Eosinophils contain numerous cytoplasmatic granules that release cationic proteins, cytokines, chemokines, and other molecules, all of which contribute to their functioning. In addition to the competence of eosinophils as effector cells, their capabilities as antigen-presenting cells enable them to act in multiple situations, thus promoting diverse aspects of the immune response. This review summarizes various aspects of eosinophil biology, with emphasis on the mechanisms used and roles played by eosinophils in host defence against viral infections and response to vaccines.

How Are White Blood Cells Classified?
How are white blood cells classified? Copyright 2017 by the Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia How are white blood cells classified? Types of White Blood Cells: Neutrophil Eosinophil Basophil Lymphocyte Monocyte . The types of white blood cells are shown above. The next page will describe lymphocytes in further detail. A healthy individual has all of these white blood cells types, but within specific ranges. Deviation from these ranges can indicate acute illness or a chronic disease. A mnemonic that is often used to remember the relative amount of each white blood cell that should be present is “Never Let Monkeys Eat Bananas.” Never Neutrophil Highest amounts Let Lymphocyte Monkeys Monocyte Eat Eosinophil Bananas Basophil Lowest amounts . In other words, neutrophils should always be present in higher amounts compared to the other cell types. This will be described further in “A first step in diagnosing LGL leukemia: The blood smear.” Copyright 2017 by the Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia How are white blood cells classified? Introduction: White blood cells are blood cells that fight infection and disease. Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell. They can identify antigens (substances foreign to the body) and cause an immune response. There are three types of lymphocytes: T-cell, NK-cell, and B-cell. In healthy adults, 10-15% of the lymphocytes are large granular lymphocytes (LGLs). To learn more about LGL cells, see “A first step in diagnosing LGL leukemia: The blood smear.” A person is diagnosed with LGL leukemia if there is a clonal (copied) population of T-cells or NK-cells present.
