摘要
Interleukin 5 (IL-5) is a key cytokine in the regulation of eosinophiha and eosinophil activation in humans. Monoclonal antibodies to anti-IL-5 have become available for use in clinical studies in humans. This article discusses the rationale for the use of anti-IL-5 therapy in asthma and hypereosinophilic syndrome and summarizes the available clinical data on the use of anti-IL-5 to treat these disorders.
