Eosinophils are produced in the bone marrow from. CD 34+ pluripotent progenitor cells, which are common. to both eosinophils and basophils under the influence of. growth factors, including interleukin-3 (IL-3), granulo-. cyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), and IL-5.
Increases in eosinophils are also seen in response to collagen vascular disorders. Collagen vascular. disorders are a group of acquired disorders that have in common widespread inflammation in blood. vessels and connective tissue. Eosinophilic gastroenteritis can also cause the eosinophil level to be. too high. Eosinophilic gastroenteritis is a condition in which eosinophils of the blood pass into the. mucous membranes of the small intestine.
