Using in situ hybridization, we have shown that activated human peripheral blood eosinophils express mRNA for granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). Between 15 and 27% of eosinophils gave positive hybridization signals for GM-CSF mRNA after stimulation with the calcium ionophore A23187 or interferon gamma, and 4 and 6% after incubation with interleukin 3 (IL-3) or IL-5. Activated eosinophils also gave specific immunoreactivity with an anti-GM-CSF polyclonal antibody, suggesting translation of the mRNA. These data indicate that eosinophils may be an important source of GM-CSF at sites of allergic inflammation. Furthermore, the identification of GM-CSF production by human eosinophils suggests that the pro-inflammatory potential of this cell type may be substantially greater than hitherto recognized.
