| eosinophilic pustular folliculitis | A dermatosis characterised by sterile pruritic papules and pustules that coalesce to form plaques with papulovesicular borders; spontaneous exacerbations and remissions may be accompanied by peripheral leukocytosis, eosinophilia, or both, and may result in eventual destruction of hair follicles and formation of eosinophilic abscesses. The disease has been reported in AIDS, and a possibly separate form of eosinophilic pustular folliculitis occurs in infants. Synonym: Ofuji's disease. (05 Mar 2000) |

| eosinophillic folliculitis | <pathology> An inflammatory reaction around hair follicles, characterised by very itchy papules that may grow together to form plaques. The cause of this condition in people with AIDS has yet to be established, although the condition obviously involves invasion of the follicles by eosinophils. Partially successful treatment has been reported with ultraviolet light, steroids, antihistamines and itraconazole. (09 Oct 1997) |
| eosinophilopoetin | <protein> Small (1500D) peptide, possibly released by T lymphocytes, that regulates eosinophil development in the bone marrow. Probably interleukin-5. (18 Nov 1997) |
| eosinophils | A type of polymorphonuclear leukocyte containing eosin-staining granules. Although the activity of eosinophils is not entirely clear, they are known to destroy parasitic organisms and play a major role in allergic reactions. They also secrete chemical mediators that can cause bronchoconstriction in asthma. Eosinophils make up one to three percent of the total white blood cell count. (27 Sep 1997) |
| eosinophiluria | Presence of eosinophils in the urine. (05 Mar 2000) |
| eosinotactic | Exerting a force of attraction or repulsion on eosinophile cells. Origin: eosino(phile) + G. Taktikos, in orderly arrangement (05 Mar 2000) |
| eosinotaxis | Movement of eosinophils with reference to a stimulus which attracts or repels them. (05 Mar 2000) |
| eosophobia | <psychology> Morbid dread of the dawn. Origin: G. Eos, dawn, + phobos, fear (05 Mar 2000) |
| eosphorite | <chemical> A hydrous phosphate of alumina and manganese. It is generally of a rose-pink colour, whence the name. Origin: From Gr. Bringer of morn. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| eozoic | <geology> Of or pertaining to rocks or strata older than the Paleozoic, in many of which the eozoon has been found. This term has been proposed for the strata formerly called Azoic, and is preferred especially by those geologists who regard the eozoon as of organic origin. See Archaean. See: Eozoon. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| eozoon | <paleontology> A peculiar structure found in the Archaean limestones of Canada and other regions. By some geologists it is believed to be a species of gigantic Foraminifera, but others consider it a concretion, without organic structure. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| eozoonal | <paleontology> Pertaining to the eozoon; containing eozoons; as, eozoonal limestone. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| eosinophilic fasciitis |
A scleroderma-like condition in which there is skin thickening and tethering with oedema along with thickening of the sub-epidermal fascia and infiltration with eosinophils. (Shulman's syndrome)

| eosinophilia |
A group of conditions having the characteristic elevation of eosinophils. These somewhat mysterious granulocytic leukocytes are definitely involved in parasite resistance, seem to initiate strong inflammation under some conditions, can facilitate clotting by inhibiting heparin, yet also are a part of the process of healing and inflammation control as an infection winds down. ...
