Out of 688 potential papers found, abstracts were reviewed based on the following criteria: (1) ECP was used as a bi...
متن کاملEosinophil cationic protein is not only a distinctive eosinophil protein
We read with interest the article by Qiu et al (Thorax 2007;62:475–82). In this paper, neutrophils and eosinophils were identified using mouse anti-human neutrophil elastase and anti-eosinophil cationic protein (ECP), both monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). mAbs against ECP have been used to detect total eosinophils, but immunostaining techniques evidenced that the number of ECP cells was higher tha...
