Eosinophil and mast cell expression in host skin during larval development of the human bot fly Dermatobia hominis
Eosinophils and mast cells in the skin of Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) infested with Dermatobia hominis larvae were quantified and analysed. Eosinophils in parasitised skin increased markedly until 10 days post-infestation (dpi) and then decreased up to 28 dpi, close to the point at which third s...
