Eosinophilia in the peritoneum was associated with high levels of essential factors for the development, recruitment, activation and maintenance of eosinophils, such as TSLP and IL-5 from the first week post-infection and CCL11 from the second week post-infection, reflecting a suitable milieu for eosinophil activation and differentiation (23). This evidence concerns the gene IL5 and Increased total eosinophil count.
