abstract：:Cyclophosphamide (Cy) is known to produce a marked eosinophilia in mice after antigen challenge. In this study, we studied the effect of Cy on eosinophilia in helminthic infection. Peripheral blood eosinophils were counted in SJL mice following a large dose of Cy injection, infection with Toxocara canis, and both Cy i...
