title: Identification of surface molecules on eosinophils and lymphocytes in blood from patients with eosinophilia.
abstract: Surface molecules on eosinophils and lymphocytes in blood from patients with hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES), Kimura's disease and normal volunteers were examined. In all 3 patients with HES, CD54-positive eosinophils were increased and in some patients with HES and Kimura's disease HLA-DR-positive eosinophils were increased. Additionally, CD11b-positive, CD16-positive, CD25-positive, CD54-positive, CD69-positive and HLA-DR-positive lymphocytes were increased in some of these patients.
