• mice exhibit normal baseline total blood cell counts, platelet counts, and blood chemistries and innate immune response in air-pouch-LPS inflammation, group A steptococus skin infection or oxazolone-ear painting
• increased metamyelocytic eosinophil precursors in ovalbumin-treated mice
• in the blood and bone marrow of mice treated with ovalbumin
• however, baseline levels are normal
• after ovalbumin challenge, eosinophil resolution is delayed and peribronchial eosinophil apoptosis is impaired compared to in wild-type mice
• in an ovalbumin-challenge, mice exhibit more prominent peribronchial eosinophil infiltration compared with wild-type mice
• after ovalbumin challenge, eosinophil resolution is delayed and peribronchial eosinophil apoptosis is impaired compared to in wild-type mice
• however, there is no overall increase in numbers of infiltrating CD4+ cells or airway resistance
