- W3018418935 abstract "Eosinophils are circulating and tissue-resident leukocytes that have potent proinflammatory effects in a number of diseases. Recently, eosinophils have been shown to have various other functions, including immunoregulation and antiviral activity. Eosinophil levels vary dramatically in a number of clinical settings, especially following eosinophil-targeted therapy, which is now available to selectively deplete these cells. There are key coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related questions concerning eosinophils whose answers affect recommended prevention and care. First, do patients with eosinophilia-associated diseases have an altered course of COVID-19? Second, do patients with eosinopenia (now intentionally induced by biological drugs) have unique COVID-19 susceptibility and/or disease course? This is a particularly relevant question because eosinopenia is associated with acute respiratory deterioration during infection with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, the causative agent of COVID-19. Third, do eosinophils contribute to the lung pathology induced during COVID-19 and will they contribute to immunopotentiation potentially associated with emerging COVID-19 vaccines? Herein, we address these timely questions and project considerations during the emerging COVID-19 pandemic.

Eosinophils normally account for only a small percentage of circulating leukocytes (1%-3%), but their levels can vary in various disease states.1Rothenberg M.E.

In addition to their proinflammatory effects, evidence is emerging, albeit primarily in mice, that eosinophils have pleotropic roles as regulatory cells involved in protective immunity, including antiviral responses and shaping diverse physiological responses, such as organ development and metabolism. Although eosinophils are normally considered blood cells, they reside in various tissues. Most notably, eosinophils reside in the gastrointestinal tract, which is their primary residence, and the lung, where a population of regulatory eosinophils, which have unique features compared with inflammatory eosinophils, has been identified.4Weller P.F.

Accordingly, a number of clinically approved biological antibody-based precision therapies are now available that directly target eosinophils, resulting in eosinophil depletion.5Busse W. Chupp G.

In addition to biological drug–induced eosinopenia, eosinophil depletion occurs in response to multiple triggers of acute inflammation,8Bass D.A.

First, do patients with eosinophilia-associated diseases have an altered course of COVID-19? Second, do patients with eosinopenia have unique COVID-19 disease features? This is a particularly relevant question because eosinopenia has already been reported in patients with acute respiratory deterioration during infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus (CoV) 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of COVID-19.10Zhang JJ, Dong X, Cao YY, Yuan YD, Yang YB, Yan YQ, et al.

Indeed, eosinophil-associated lung pathology is known to occur following certain viral infections (eg, respiratory syncytial virus [RSV]) and importantly is a known complication in previous severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 1 (SARS-CoV-1) vaccination studies (see Table I).11Deming D.

The role of eosinophils in mucosal immune responses in the respiratory tract has largely focused on the detrimental impact that these cells can have in inflammatory responses due to their potent proinflammatory function. However, preclinical studies (mainly in mice) have shown that eosinophils are equipped with an assortment of molecular tools that enable them to recognize, respond, and orchestrate antiviral responses to respiratory viruses.19Flores-Torres A.S.

Eosinophils, eosinophil ribonucleases, and their role in host defense against respiratory virus pathogens.J Leukoc Biol. 2001; 70: 691-698Crossref PubMed Google Scholar suggested that eosinophils in the respiratory tract might represent a “double-edged sword,” promoting antiviral responses against some respiratory viruses that could become dysregulated during allergic disease given their increased numbers and/or activation status, ultimately resulting in an exaggerated host response that can lead to host tissue damage. The growing number of biologic agents that target eosinophils may be useful tools to help clarify the role eosinophils have in different antiviral responses. Taken together, although preclinical studies have demonstrated antiviral activity for eosinophils, their clinical relevance in immune responses to different respiratory viruses remains unclear and needs further investigation. Rhinovirus, RSV, and influenza virus are common triggers of viral-induced asthma exacerbations, whereas coronaviruses are far less common triggers for acute" @default.
