  • Title: Selective attraction of eosinophils and synergism between eosinophil chemotactic factor of anaphylaxis (ECF-A) and a fragment cleaved from the fifth component of complement (C5a).
    Author: Kay AB, Shin HS, Austen KF.
    Journal: Immunology; 1973 Jun; 24(6):969-76. PubMed ID: 4123965.
    Abstract:
    ECF-A and C5a were chemotactic both for eosinophils and neutrophils. However, when eosinophils comprised approximately 10 per cent or more of a mixed leucocyte population, they were preferentially attracted by both of these agents. Marked synergism was observed between ECF-A and C5a in their ability to attract eosinophil leucocytes.
