| Comments | "Once the eosinophil has entered the blood, it has a short halflife, ranging from 8 to 18 hours. After circulating in the blood, eosinophils migrate into the tissues, probably by diapedesis at endothelial intercellular junctions by a mechanism involving cytokines and adhesion molecules." |
