Eosinophils
Answer quickly, which Interleukin increases eosinophils? Quickly now! If you didn't get it, simply ask yourself what letter does Eosinophils start with? E, the 5th letter of the alphabet...so IL-5
I'm taking the test in two weeks, and your posts are absolutely invaluable. Please keep them up! And from the bottom of my heart - thank you.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your sincere encouragement! You're almost done, good luck!
ReplyDeleteit should be IL-4 for EOSINOPHILS not IL-5.Correct me if i am wrong!
ReplyDeleteIL-5 is for eosinophils. IL-4 is for IgE. This is what it says in the Kaplan Immunology Lecture Notes. Where are you getting your info from?
